Optura 200 mc eject tape problem Is there any fix for this problem that I can perform

SOURCE: Optura Pi is eating tapes

hi from what i understand by "eat" is that the coil is popped out what it means is that the coil leader is misplaced and letting it to run free out of place this can be fixed by you if you will find what had gone wrong in that path (broken pin, cog etc...) and glue it back or fix the missing element in place good luck

SOURCE: Optura 20 worked fine yesterday. Now it repeats eject tape over &

try laying it on its side and giving it a firm tap.....thats what other people have been doing an it worked.....we will see......

SOURCE: Reads "eject tape" or "remove tape"

Theres been a failure in the drive system for the tape. Probably mechanical, so you woul need to take it in to get fixed.

A few times I've been able to resolve this by blowing compressed air in the frame and cleaning the head (if u can get to it)

This can be caused by several problems including a defective eject switch in the cameras internal circuitry or a bad motor and can usually be repaired fairly inexpensively. However, it's not a user serviceable problem and will need to be repaired qualified service technician.
