Bought another JVC HR-D470U..

Bought another JVC HR-D470U side loader. Bought it as dead / won't power on. Got into it and found a shorted cap and open resistor in the power supply. Replaced those and it's alive! I didn't think it would actually play without at least cleaning or replacing the belts and maybe lubing the mechanism. It actually plays pretty well. It doesn't struggle at all loading / unloading or changing modes. The VFD has some problems. Some segments are not lit up. I will have to look at that later on.
