[Upbeat music]
Hi! I’m Marianne. Patience with the plastic!
[Upbeat music concludes]
Today we’re still dealing with Jocelyn’s Persimmon model VHS, and I know last time I said “great choice of model.” Well, I stand by that, but…
[Sound of toolkit on desk]
These things… they’re put together well, but they can be fiddly.
All sorts of reasons as to why. Let’s start by taking the back off.
They say that back in the day, someone at the Persimmon plant screwed up an order and got a batch of washing machine parts delivered.
… Just, uh, lift this back panel off. You can reach in with a dauber and press that little film back…
So, apparently this washing machine part order was far cheaper than what you’d use to make VHS players, and some guy on the factory floor figured out the similarities.
If you ask me, nothing in here looks like it came from a washing machine. And we fixed one last series! Maybe it’s just a story.
But look at this… See these screws here? Far bigger than they need to be, huh?
And this rotor arm. You’d think it’d be made of plastic, right?
[Sharp “tink”]
Metal.
But enough of that. We’re here to fix the erase head, which should be…
Huh. Now that IS a puzzler.
