Panasonic NV 7200 not rewinding /forwarding
Hi guys, I have a Panasonic NV 7200 and changed all the belts. Originally, nothing worked at all. The issue is with the idler. When I moved it to the left, the tape played and was able to rewind but didn't forward at all. When I moved the idler to right, play and rewind didn't work but the forward did.
Is it the tyre or the whole idler that's messed up? Where do I get the parts from? There's also a noise coming from the head but the picture is clear. |

If you can get the whole idler assembly that should cure it, but it will be the tyre that is the problem. Donberg Electronics seem to have a lot of the spares.

The entire assembly should come out. You then remove the tyre and fit a new one. But it's simpler to fit a new assembly if you can get one.

The noise from the video head may just mean the discharge spring that bears on the top spindle is in need of a tiny spot of grease.

Thanks guys. I tried to buy from Donbergs but I have to spend at least £20 for them to send the item. Don't know what to buy because I've changed all the belts
