Default Re: Ferguson Videostar and Fisher Studio Standard collector

I'm sure it was a Fisher machine which drove me insane a long time ago. Clock was ok but when standby was pressed the LED came on for a few seconds then went out. Much poking around the PSU and microcontroller was fruitless, another (wiser) engineer told me to change the idler. I was very doubtful this would work but it did, apparently the machine fires the reel motor and looks for pulses from the reel sensors before waking up..... ��
