How to get a tape out of a VCR that stuck?

  • I have a tape that is stuck in my VCR and I can't seem to get it out.

  • Answer:

    You need to open you VCR case and manually start moving your mechanism as it should move if it worked. Anyway it is always the best answer to leave this to professional because every VCR has it's own way of ejecting tape

Still using VCRs?

Find a friend who is good at opening up electronics. You'll need to remove the cover and gently work the tape out of the unit. The tape will be trash, but you might be able to save the VCR. It doesn't take a whole ton of expertise, just a steady hand and a patient, mechanically-oriented mind.
