And as a little update, unfortunately I found several broken traces on the main control board of the VCR (the board that contains the Servo Circuit, Index Circuit, and the System Control Circuits) that were from some cracks that I found on the circuit board that were around a couple of the plastic standoffs that were for supporting the board against the case when you installed the board into the case.
I'm going to see if there's any way to repair those traces, if not I'll see if there's a board for this VCR available on feebay for sale.

It will more than likely be a single-layer board so severed traces will be easy to repair. Can you upload close-up pictures of the damaged traces?
