Roland VG-540 Black Head Leaking

Updated: Apr 22, 2022

Client had issues with the black head dripping. Head #3 in this case. Typically due to a damper failing if they are of the old variety. Issues with the film shrinking over time.

Replaced damper #3 to resolve black leaking issue.

On old damper you could see that the left side film had separated (can't really see this in the photo).


Also the arm is extended much further out then it should be, thus not being able to trip the filled sensor and being over filled and leaking.
