  If your Audiovox VCR is in play mode but you're not getting any audio or video on your TV, here are a few things to check: * If the VCR is connected to the A/V Input jack, ensure that the RCA patch cables are set to TV mode. * If connected via a 75Ù coax antenna cable, make sure the TV is switched to TV mode, not monitor mode. * If connected to A/V output jacks, change the connections to A/V input jacks. * Verify that the VCP A/V RCA cables or coax are correctly connected to the TV input. * Check for any loose or faulty connections between the VCR and the TV. * Ensure the A/V inputs to the TV are not reversed. * Check the coax cable between the VCR and TV for shorts.

  If you're experiencing a poor, snowy picture, or lines on the screen with your Audiovox VCR, it might be due to dirty heads. You can clean the heads using a tape cartridge cleaner.

  If your Audiovox VCR has power (back lighting is on) but won't operate, consider these possibilities: * The unit may be in dew mode. Allow the unit time to rid moisture. If the dew indicator is still on after 30 minutes, completely switch the power supply off from the unit and re-supply after 1 minute to reset it. * Make sure a tape is inserted. * If in a vehicle, start the engine to ensure adequate voltage.

Why Audiovox VCR no back lighting at power button?
- G
  Gabrielle LoweAug 25, 2025
  If there's no back lighting at the power button on your Audiovox VCR, it could be due to a lack of 12VDC power. Here are some things to check: 1. Check the circuit fuse at the power source (refer to the vehicle/converter manual). 2. Inspect the in-line fuse of the power cord, located in the lighter plug. 3. Examine the VCP (2 amp *20x 5mm) fuse on the rear of the unit. 4. Ensure the power cord is properly plugged into the 12V outlet and the rear of the unit.
