Sony VCR - SLV-595 HF - Tape Load Gear Repair

Recently I repaired my Sony SLV-595 HF VCR. It had worked a few months earlier but when I tried to load a tape I noticed it had several problems, The lever that pulls the tape behind the capstain and pinch roller was seized and the drive gear to the tape transport loader was broken in half. I was able to repair it with a little help from a few other videos on Sony tape transport repairs. Thanks to others that posted. I thought I would also post my findings to help those that may encounter similar problems, I also located a supplier in Canada for the gear. (Unfortunately the glue let go after a few months) The gear was $4.95 from KP Components. Part # 3-736-147-01 Left threading gear. http://kpcomponents.co/products/sony-...
