I agree with Ed.Video capstan motors are more complex .They are not like cassette tape motors with a trimmer inside or tape speed adjustments and some which are interchangeable.

Yes check the caps around the motor driver circuit plus the power supply circuit going to the motor.

Nice machine. Had one just like it back in the 90's.

DishDude nailed the Pay TV knob, I read it in the manual long ago.

Man those crazy RF chains full of splitters and switches we used to wrig up could be nuts.

I used a VCR similar to this when I was a kid and with it I discovered that (at least for my CATV near Memphis TN)
I could run my cable box to the VCR with RF
and the VCR to another via composite video(probably could have skipped this with a better tv),
tune the box to HBO,
cut the composite video cable,
switch the polarity,
and I had HBO!
we had only 3 premium channels HBO, Cinemax and Disney and we didn't pay for any. The only reason for the box was my 70's model Quasar.

I remember on my black and white TV I had a "FINE TUNE" slider and I could "fine tune" a scrambled picure in enough to watch it


Ah man!!
