The title explains it all really. This is a Realistic CTR-55 Model 14-1005. I replaced melted belts and the capstan just moves clockwise jamming the supply reel. Attached is a photo of the belt drive. The far pulley is the motor, the closest white one is the idler wheel, and the black flywheel is the capstan. Anyone have any idea what the problem may be?
I was gifted this camcorder by a family member as just got around to attempting to use it. Everything seems to work just fine but whenever it gets turned on it begins to buzz, pausing occasionally. When I opened it up I noticed that all the belts seem to be missing and that there is some melted rubber in their place.
I'd like to fix this camera as it was a gift but I have never gone further than opening up one of them. I also couldn't find manuals or videos on the Internet after a couple hours of searching apart from one person casually reviewing it. Is there any chance I could get some help with it?
