Need help removing bottom panel from Orion VHS player
Hi, I'm attempting to remove the bottom from an Orion VHS player, manufactured in 1998. The player eats tapes, so I would like to see if I can replace belts and the idler, if in fact i can find replacement parts for this unit. I've included a picture of the bottom panel with the important sections letter labeled.
I've removed the screws from the top that go through the motherboard into the back panel, labeled G and H. The problem is, when I depress the two tabs, C and D, the go down a bit, but don't release the back. They are still depressed in after using a small flat head screwdriver. But the panel won't budge as I try to push it downward.
I've also lifted tabs A and B to get them above the round projections. What am I doing wrong. Update: having another look at the unit, it appears the front face panel needs to be removed first before being able to remove the bottom panel.
Ist dies eine gute Frage?

Hi oldturkey,
The model is VR0210. My friend has two, this model that eats tapes, and a VR0419 which the eject button doesn't work. I managed to buy a used one from a thrift store for ten bucks that is model VR0421 that works. I bought it in case I can't fix these other two, or for parts. Thanks for your time, it's appreciated.
