Super interesting, not only from the point of view that I didn't know you could even take apart a Loader. But also that it had switches you could service inside. Your knowledge and experience with gear that wasn't only one brand is very impressive. And valuable.

Hello, my friend! Thank you for this video! Watched your video and repaired my Panasonic DVDS35. Three times I tried to repair it, lay for many years. I cleaned the switches and put them on the marks and, lo and behold, it worked like a new one !!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!👍👍👍👋👋👋

Great thanks for your help. With this video my Panasonic works fine now.

What a shame that the dvd ram didnt become the dvd standard.

Dave I have this model i bought for $20 bucks US with remote works perfectly. Good info in case of issues

Look at Dave….kicking out the Al Di Meola!!

I'm so impressed seeing you repairing all those different machines. I just wished you'd lived in Sweden so that you could help me with my not-so-good working cassette decks, reel-to-reel recoders and other stuff. Even if I am an old sound engineer I don't know anything about repairing the stuff. I have tried but all those screws that are left over proves that that is not for me to try anymore. ;-)

The ol' tarnished contacts on the load tray switch problem...hmm, had forgotten that one as I haven't seen 1 of those for repair in over a decade, however, I do own 5 Panacronics

Excellent job sir

yes Dave love the PANASONIC DMRE E20

Interesting about DVD RAM. I didn't know what they were until yesterday.

This player (like one of my Panasonic DVD player) uses a single motor for sledge motion and opening/closing the disc drawer. Clever, but before opening the drawer it needs to reposition the pick-up close to centre. Not particularly silent too...

i have a Panasonic DMR-ES15 dvd recorder that i bought from goodwill it played disc fine but as soon as i recorded on it after a few mins it said disc error and now it won't even play a dvd anymore. i tried cleaning the lens but that made no difference. i don't know what else i can do i also tried doing a factory reset.

I think you mentioned this in one of your other videos, but why are the jumpers needed for the laser pickup diodes when disconnecting the optical block? Is it to prevent ESD on the laser diodes?

Sorry just trying to find out about Le Chateau wear made in Canada is it good stuff?

I have a JVC small home hifi with a iPod dock at the bottom that I bought but didn’t realise its gen 2 dock wasn’t working, I’ve removed the circuit board and found the dock port damaged but no one in Australia has parts, does the US have a parts supplier I could contact? The part number is GVA10161-A1?

👍👍👍👍👍

I have a 1985 Panasonic AG1000 vhs player that seems to drop frames every so often like it jumps a frame backwards. Any idea what that would be i replaced the head drum but it did that before.
