LF-201 Power Supply Line Filter
Regardless of brand, every VCR switch-mode power supply uses a line filter like the one pictured at the left.   This filter keeps interference from the oscillation of the power supply from coupling back to the power lines and causing problems on other audio/video devices in the same household.  Sometimes you may find this filter is damaged (evidenced by burnt, black windings instead of shiny copper wire as shown in the photo).   The LF-201 line filter is universal for all switch-mode VCR power supplies, and (if needed) should only be installed in conjunction with the appropriate power supply rebuild kit.
