TROUBLESHOOTING OF VCR SECTION
Check/replace X7701 
and/or IC2001.
ELECTRICAL TROUBLESHOOTING
VCR POWER TROUBLESHOOTING
FLOW CHART NO.1-1
The VCR is dead.(No power)
Unplug the AC power cord.
Replug it a few minutes later.
Are the AT 5V and AT 12V 
lines normal?
Are the AT 5V and GND 
lines properly connected 
with IC2001?
Is there oscillation 
(16MHz) at pins (38) and 
(39) of IC2001?
Are the PC 9V and PC 5V 
lines normal?
Check power circuit.
Check poor soldering.
Check power circuit.
Check the sensor inputs 
to IC2001 from 
mechanism. (CAM 
switches,start/end 
sensors,and reel sensors)
KEY-IN TROUBLESHOOTING
FLOW CHART NO.1-2
Key-in input for VCR is not received.
Is the key switch in good 
contact?
Is there short-circuit in the 
key input?
Are signals received at 
pin (8) of IC2001 when 
the key is activated?
Check IC2001.
Check the switch contact.
Check IC2001 and switches 
for poor soldering.
Check key lines to input 
IC2001.

Check IC7701 and AT12V line.
Check between IC7701 and the 
loading motor.
A cassette tape is taken in, but ejected at once.
Replace IC2001
Is the cassette housing distored?
Does the start sensor cover 
become open when the cassette 
tape is inserted?
Does the start sensor pin (5) of 
IC2001 go to "L" level when the 
cassette tape is inserted?
Does pin (5) of IC7701 (BA6209) 
go to "H" level (about 1.8V) when 
the cassette tape is inserted?
Check and replace the loading 
motor.
Is the correct voltage at the 
loading motor terminal when the 
cassette tape is inserted?
Does pin (2) of IC7701 go to 
about11V when the cassette 
tape is inserted?
Do the cam switches A and B 
operate normally when the 
cassette tape is loaded?
Does end sensor pulse at pin (6) 
of IC2001 change from "L" to "H" 
level when the cassette tape is 
loaded?
Does start sensor pulse at pin (5) 
of IC2001 change from "L" to "H" 
level when the cassette tape is 
loaded?
Check the start sensor and all 
the way up to IC2001.
Check the end sensor and all the 
way up to IC2001.
Check cam switches and all the 
way up to IC2001.
