My T.V. works great DVD and any channels I get on antena, but when i put a VHS in it plays for about 5-10 seconds then my T.V. shuts down. I turn it back on and the tape get ejected automatically. During the first couple seconds of play, picture and sound is great. Any help?? Robert
It sounds to me like you have a problem with the reel sensors not detecting movement of the tape through the VCR. This could also be caused by a defective voltage regulator(s) that powers the sensors. This model was made by symphonic/funai (1-800-242-7158), and it is not likely worth repairing.
