This part number / motor number may also be known as 4527V02500 or SO4527V02500. Also a 4527V02400 may work. If you know where I can find one or a complete VCR with one in it…I’m Looking. Here is a link to some pictures of the motor. Thanks Yall http://img850.imageshack.us/slidesho...id=motor4n.jpg |
I have this Sanyo VHR-1900 model also. This was Sanyo's first and oldest VHS VCR model with 4-Head, Hi-Fi stereo feature, manufactured in 1986. It has this really unique large Hi-Fi LED audio level meter display placed directly on top of the cassette tray door (see attached photo below), and the door flips downward. Despite it's skeptical looks, this model is definitely far more reliable than the Fisher models.
I have two working spare reel motors for it, but I decide to keep both of them, as I plan to use this model for the next 20-30 years in service.
The owner that regularly sells VCR belt-kits at studiosoundelectronics.com successfully confirm the "Sanyo" brand as being the most-reliable "famous-brand" VHS VCR manufacturer in the world, based on their 30-year average repair-rate trend. His statement encourages me to hang on to my Sanyo VHR-1900 longer. The #1 most-reliable VHS VCR manufacturer in the world is actually Shintom, but no one has heard of this company. Sanyo is #2.
