Dave, when you put up text on the screen could you keep it there about twice as long so it can be read without backing up the video and pausing it. Other than that, a good video.
By the looks of it, even though that model was sold in North America it looks like that's an Eastern European import, The IEC connectors on the back and the D/K tuner on the back suggests it's from Eastern Europe. I have the AIWA HV MX-100 which seems better built, I love that VCR and it seems like it's one of the most worldwide compatible if not THE most compatible VCR. It has two tuners/modulators, one is NTSC-M channel 3-4 the other is European UHF B/G - I - D/K, it has both IEC and F RF connectors, it can record and play NTSC, PAL, SECAM, PAL-M and PAL-N tapes and convert between any of those systems, I think it's the most versatile VCR out there, oh and it's also 6 head HIFI Stereo which is pretty neat. It will work literally anywhere in the world.
All this stuff is consumer grade, past it's design life. I just collect any vcr I find if it looks in good condition. I think the oil degraded the plastic. Happens in expensive cars too
Dave, you can source this mech from Orion and Funai VCRs. Like Funai V3EE MK6, and I have a Dual VCR with the same mech as well, and a playback only Orion (don't know those model numbers from the top of my head). I hate this mech because of the too many belts in it. I bought the Dual in last summer, the same gear cracked the same way as I was trying to turn it... :-) .
Never new Awia were part of Sony this is why I whatch more 12 volts than anyone else when it comes to electrics the info on the products is second to none .
Aiwa was always part of Sony. A sister company that often had early designs that were very similar to Sony branded products that came out a year or so later. I had an Aiwa 3 head cassette deck with Dolby B/C with that excact same mechanism that Sony lad a year later. I forget the one, but it was the one with the magnetic triggered cam wheels on the back side of the mechanism.
@@12voltvids I had a separate Awia cassette deck of the 90's. also an Awia surround sound Dolby pro logic 5.1 all bells and lights system 6 disc changer look good but was no match for separates as I soon found out .thanks for the great vids you put out .
A friend has a couple of Aiwa converter VCRs (different model than this) and each has a different problem. One blew a hole in an IC but still works sometimes. The other stripped a gear in the loading system and needs a push to load. He managed to limp through using them somehow. I looked on eBay for a replacement or parts machine but the prices were insane.
I've been noticing gears on AliExpress, I don't know if they'll be any good and if anything would fit. I'm sure you've probably already looked. It's a shame plastic was ever used but then again everything wears out eventually.
I've had an Aiwa MX100 multi system VHS recorder in my garage for years, waiting for repairs. I got it at the Goodwill Store and there was a tape stuck in it. It's probably a simple problem (mode switch, I reckon) but it's a PITA to service because there are basically no wires between the mechanism and the motherboard: everything is connected via contacts that come together by putting the machine together.
Well, to be fair, this VCR is likely well beyond the manufacturer's intended service life. I mean, I have hi-fi VCRs that are approaching 40 years of age, especially my SL-2710. It still works fine, but it's just a matter of time before certain plastic parts fail owing to age. It's amazing that it's lasted this long. I mean no disrespect, you certainly know where I'm getting at here considering that you have quite the collection of gear under the same situation.
i have a couple machines with this mech, all TEAC brand, just got some files made for those two gears as i had the same issue, brittle plastic, doing some prototypes at the moment and good results so far.
I have the same recorder. Hopefully it is working in all states except record. In the year 2000 I byu this machine on Ebay for 15 Deutsche Mark (ca. 7,50€).
I had the same problem with the Toshiba VCP-B1E where the mechanism is the same. The reason is that the two wheels had a lot of resistance to turning. And they're made of poor material
Aiwa were a funny company. They were as said a company with a close relationship to Sony, however they had some factories around the world which had little to do with even other Japanese firms. For several years in the 1980s/90s they made stereo systems in the UK which were built from Philips kits, for example. Quite a few very cheap CDM4/TDA1541 based midi-sized CD players which don't bear much resemblance to the Belgian Philips ones (better quality build too - metal cases, beefier transformers, VFD displays rather than cheapo LCD etc).
Matsui? You realise Matsui were just a brand name slapped on Orion VCRs by Dixons? But yes this is a mech that you would see in a Funai (or Sony) VCR - made by Shintom, a Japanese company who made mechs for many companies.
@@jasejj Can you tell me a Sony model with this mech? I've only seen this in Funai/Orion, and Dual VCRs. I hate it for the dozen belts it has. And now for these decomposing gears as well.
Yes, Sony had an habit of using third party decks back in the day. European Sony VHSs only used around 4-5 different own mechs. Sanyo, Hitachi and Funai were among their favorite ones. Later machines also incorporated a Samsung deck, which was a lightweight cheap not quite reliable mechanism.
@@Vintaginside The Samsung ones were actual Samsung VCRs with Sony badge on them, even the menu icons were the same as on the Samsung variant. Not just the mech was Samsung, but everything. Those mechanisms generally are quite reliable, except the clutch on the pendulum gear, which fails frequently, and not available anymore (since about 2010). They fail probably due to the x400 rewind speed, and the plastic actuator arm of the clutch that tries to survive the friction at those crazy speeds, at one point it wears out and then the machnine will fast forward and rewind with the clutch in playback mode. This literally melts the clutch quite fast. Everyone who uses Samsung VCRs for archiving should use external VHS winders if they want their machine to last and not self-destruct. I've also seen rotten and open circuit rotary transformer in a practically new Samsung SV-635X from 2000. The same fault that Dave shown with a Panasonic, the glue turned corrosive, but that Panasonic was 10-15 years older.
I had several VCRs with this mechanism, and I could never get them working consistently. It always amused me how noisy this particular mechanism is in operation, pretty sure it's the loudest I've seen in any VCR.
I recently bought one to play a British VHS tape, and when it played, the picture was in black and white and constantly "rolled." I'm pretty sure it needs some kind of converter. After reading all this bad stuff on here, I may not use it again.
I have AIWA E101S, where i had to replace all the belts to get it working, now it works, but there is lot of noise in the picture, like grain. Could that be a problem with the power supply ?
Sounds like there's power supply ripple going through the video process circuit and causing the hum/noise. Have a look at the caps in the secondary of the PSU.
I like this VCR, but damn that many gears is a pain in the ass, Aiwa dropped the ball hard on this VCR. Shame too, because it played VHS' from different continents.
The set of replacement belts is nearly impossible to find it and along with the broken gears the vcr after a good inspection done for educational purposes soon will end in the garbage.In my head i already hear its noise while hits the bottom of the bin.
My digital 8 and miniDV decks can play pal out the firewire. They send the analog signal out as PAL obviously, but they won't play analog PAL 8mm, just digital 8.
What is it about this model number that it's just not to be found? The first search result in DDG is your video. There is a MX100 or some such, but I cannot find this gem. Sony bought Aiwa in 2003 so is this unit post '03 (I assume it is?)
i know that mechanism i have 2 vcrs with it this little gummibelt arround the white plastic stripes which gets turned into debree. at the right bottom side on the mechanism
hi, Dave just a heads up on the Panasonic DMR E20 I fought the service manual for it! my spits the Ram out found it can be problems due to not being used yea you guess right dry joint or belt the unit is a cased in its own house so could not see a way inside in other words,s not a severable part did find out if you remove the sliding flap on the Ram it plays love your video s

LOL, a lot of parts are still available for the Funai V3EE in a local parts store, even new upper drum for $10... But not those gears, unfortunately. www.hqelektronika.hu/hu/kereses/v3ee Don't bin it yet, I might find something for it, I have at least 3 pieces of these mechs.
It's really odd I have tons of stuff and there has to be thousands of ELNA caps amoungest them but they are the only ones I've never had to change a single one, just about every other "top brand" of caps tho... Countless times.. I wonder if it has to do living in the hot climate of Australia thats helped preserve them
@@matambale Well, all of my JVC VCRs from the early 80s are full with ELNA caps and they still work. I guess it was the early 90s when bad caps started to show up.
The Japanese although lights years better than Chinese have reduced their quality in favour of just making money like everyone else. I saw their quality go down after the 80’s. Just my opinion.
Price went down because companies like Walmart and best buy were dictating what products needed to sell for. So corners were cut to get the price point while still making a profit.
Exactly. I bought a Dual VCR this summer, it has the same mech, and the same gear broke between my fingers the same way. I already suspected the same will happen to this Aiwa when he lifted the board and I saw which mechanism is it. These ones expired 10-15 years ago because of these self-decomposing plastic parts.
I've seen that color of plastic before, kind of a beige with white powder lookin stuff on it. There were clear poly 6x9 woofers they put in rear decks in car stereos that the ultra violet light turned the plastic brittle. They called it the potato chip effect. Foam rot of woofer surrounds is supposed to be caused by a fungus. Wonder if this is a fungus caused by damp conditions...
