When i start play a first movie scene shows but within seconds play stops the vcr shuts itself off.
Vcr keeps turning off. At minimum it has 2 3 issues between shutting off and eating tapes. The remote could have a stuck button causing the rewind. You have to coax a tape in then it will play for 6 seconds and turn off. It sounds as if it is locked in auto rewind and shutoff which is what happens if you allow a tape to run out.
That vcr is not worth repairing and is probably not reparable anyway. Odds are it was never serviced never cleaned and now it s too late. Odds are components inside have dried up gotten brittle. When hitting the standby button to reactivate it it ejects the tape and makes the same noise.
I have looked inside but can t identify the source of the problem. The vcr is in shutdown as there is a drive problem. When powering on the vcr portion makes a sickening grinding sound whether or not there is a tape in it. Gravity has also taken a toll severe alignment issues.
Remove the batteries from the remote power off the vcr and check. After tape is inserted in vcr the vcr automatically turns on normal.
