20 Most Recent Sanyo Xacti E1 Waterproof Camcorder Questions & Answers

I couldn't locate your Xacti E1 6 MP waterproof camcorder on the Sanyo website.

Hi!
It's most likely a damaged LCD cable which goes through the hinge - happens to many camcorders. You will have to contact your local Sanyo service center. I replace these cables for Sony camcorders every day.

Sorry for the bad news, but hope this helps.

I guess there's only so much room for videos on the internal memory... I did a full format, problem solved!

What model Sanyo camera? What type and size memory card? Just what problem are you encountering? Is there an error message?

Just let it dry in room temperature for a day. Then try switching on. If it still doesn't work take it to a store.

Question edited for a lot more clarity. Question moved from Televisions category. When was the last time the head was cleaned? It may also need servicing or Adjustment.

It sounds like your Sanyo camcorder may be experiencing a problem with the loading or ejecting mechanism. This could be caused by a number of issues, including a damaged or broken cassette mechanism, a malfunctioning loading or ejecting motor, or a problem with the camcorder's control board. To troubleshoot the issue, you could try the following:

1. Make sure the camcorder is clean and free of any debris or obstruction.
2. Check the cassette for damage, such as broken or bent spindles, and make sure it is properly seated in the camcorder.
3. Try using a different cassette to see if the problem persists.
4. If the problem persists, you may need to have the camcorder repaired by a professional.

Keep in mind that due to the age of your camcorder, it may be more cost-effective to purchase a new one rather than repair the old one. However, if the camcorder has sentimental value or is no longer in production, repair may be the best option.

There is a pulley that breaks inside but as these have been obsolete for over 20 years, I doubt it is repairable any more. Fully working VM-D66p for £30 on amazon or fleabay.

You need the RF Adapter cables. I have seen items like that at thrift stores. The camera has that barrel connector with 6? pins to connect it to the converter box that output to Channel 3-4. Keep checking ebay or craigslist. https://www.manualslib.com/manual/894346/Sanyo-Vm-D66p.html?page=2#manual https://www.ebay.com/itm/Sanyo-VM-D6P-8mm-Video-Camera-Bundle/163512488835?hash=item26121a9383:g:pLYAAOSwUMBb8MfJ:rk:1:pf:0

Battery probably needs replacing.

The organic electrolytic capacitors leak and cause issues

knock power off then hold the eject button in as you switch power back on. This works for discs not sure about videos but its worth a try.

Contact the Sanyo site, check to see if there is a firmware upgrade for your product. If there is, download it, then follow the update instructions.
