Nice, i've done a few of these and never disconnected the board/vcr portion from the tv tube portion. Only disconnected the speaker lead. But hey, if it helps...do it.
Man, I wish they put my mode switch in an easier to access place on this little sharp vcr/tv combo I just snagged for free. It's basically hidden amongst all the other gears. not sure it's even made to be worked on.
Same exact television but instead my just turns off and then when I turn it on it just spits the tape out completely unharmed "fixed" it by changing it between input and channels for tapes
@@danielward4118 sorry if this hard to understand I'm horrible at explaining things. So on the TV there are buttons that switch between TV channels and then white and yellow input for some tapes I have to put it to TV channels and then sometimes the white and yellow input it's technically not a fix but it works until I can afford to get it repaired
I had that exact model Sylvania TV as my first ever TV, then got a 24" RCA LED backlit LCD flatscreen with built in DVD player, then it died and now I have a Hisense 40" android TV, but I will say, this was still a good TV.
@somethin6766 There are I believe 2 ribbon cables that are soldered to the board. The best thing you can do if you don't want to do any soldering is to just lift it out of the way to give you clearance to reach the mode switch.
I believe I have 3 of them. I didn't clean the heads because it simply didn't need it. The tape was a crappy one of a tv program that was recorded 20 years ago.
@@somethin6766 That's because it can't come completely off the board, as there are wires soldered between the mechanism and the board. There are also screws holding the mechanism down.

Good job man! I loved this tv
Yeah I do too. It was my first tv.

Can you explain more how you fixed it? Mine is doing the same exact thing

That issue caused by the mode switch. This TV did that sometimes as well

why won’t my mechanism detach from the circuit board

You need a VHS Head Cleaner to clean your VCR!

i can not get the mechanism loose
