Sharp and Montgomery Ward VCR replacement parts kits. Your VCR may have the Wards name on it instead of Sharp.   These VCRs are some pretty solid units and we try to stock enough parts so that you can keep them working properly.  The on-line database has been set up to direct you to the proper replacement kit for your VCR.  Even though every precaution has been taken to assure the accuracy of the database, mistakes can be made.  If you have doubts about the pictured VCR being similar to yours please check the chassis photos below.  If you feel that we've made a mistake, please E-Mail us   and let us know. We have three replacement rubber replacement kits for these VCRs, manufactured by Sharp. MBK-15: Contains both belts, Capstan/idler belt and the load belt.   The load belt in these VCRs is a common source of problems.   As they get old and deteriorate they will begin to slip and the VCR will not fully load.   The most common symptom being that the VCR will fail when going into play mode.   Your price for our MBK-15 kit is   $2.95. See photos for belt locations MBK-15T: Contains both belts, as well as the idler tire.   The most common symptom of a bad idler tire, in these Sharp built VCRs, is a no REW or FF situation.   A bad idler tire in these VCRs will also cause them to eat tape and/or shut off shortly after pressing play.   The early symptoms of a bad tire are jitter in the picture, having to constantly adjust tracking, and lines in the picture.  Your price for our MBK-15T kit is $3.95. See photos for parts location MBK-15PT: Contains both belts, as well as a replacement idler tire and pinch roller.  If your pinch roller is over four or five years old it probably needs replaced.  An inspection of the pinch roller can help determine if it needs replaced.   If it has a hard glaze on it or the capstan shaft has a black build up on it, the pinch roller has probably been slipping.  This kit is a complete rubber replacement kit for these VCRs built by Sharp.  Your price for our MBK-15PT kit is   $10.95.
