Electrolytics can also fail short circuit and look like the ESR is low. That being said, it might be time to get a scope out and check signal flow. At that point I would probably be in over my head. I do have a scope but my troubleshooting skills are not that great. LOL However with a service manual, scope and time it's amazing what a person can figure out. Unfortunately, there are very few people who will touch a VCR and do not understand WHY we want this (obsolete) stuff working! I mess with this stuff to learn how stuff works. It does feel pretty good to bring something back from the dead.
