CONTENIDO:

Troubleshooting and Repairing VCRs is designed expressly for the consumer. It offers step-by-step details on the care and feeding of home VCRs-from simple cleaning and lubricating of parts to troubleshooting power supply and logic circuitry problems. It is the first book to cover, in an in-depth but non-technical manner, the care and repair of all types of home video cassette recorders, including Beta, VHS,and 8mm, as well as the ever-popular camcorders (combination cameras and portable video cassette recorders). The instructions on VCR maintenance and repair are simple and straightforward. Complex theory is kept to a minimum. Instead, there's a liberal blend of actual hands-on help, tips, and techniques-the kind of information that is needed the most. This book is designed and written for the video hobbyist and electronics enthusiast. It is technical in nature, but it does not assume an intimate knowledge of video, audio, computer technology, electronics, or maintenance and repair techniques. You'll find plenty of introductory information, plus tips that will help you to not only enjoy your VCR investment, but save you time and money when (and if) repair time comes around. About 90 percent of all VCR malfunctions are mechanical, so Troubleshooting and Repairing VCRs spends a lot of time discussing mechanical breakdown-how to avoid it and how to repair it. That doesn't mean the book lacks information on . troubleshooting (and in some cases repairing) VCR circuitry. On the contrary, every major electronic subsystem of VCRs is fully covered, including power supplies, solenoid control, motors, and more. All home VCRs work on the same basic principies, but specific maintenance and repair techniques can vary widely between models.
