Panasonic camcorder dv

Most of these I've seen require the mini dv serviced or replaced. I have seen the switch block that the reset button is a part of fail as well. I clean and service these camcorders starting as $40. Larry's Electronics 916-362-8708 [email protected]

rear operation unit must be replaced

close the tape compartment take the batery of press the power button on and holding the power press put the batery back and wait let me know

I found the fix. It's so easy.
Take out the battery
When it says hit the reset button, hit the reset button.
Turn the camera to off
Take out the battery
Wait 2 minutes
Put the battery back in.
Turn on the camera. It won't say reset anymore.

The same happens from time to time with my panasonic NV-GS11 GC video camera and I have no idea what is causing it. But what I normally do is just turn it of wait 10 seconds and turn it on again. If it stil comes on try removing the tape and see if it is faulty.

hmm...maybe:
You need to know in which position was camera turned of.
So try turning it on in RECORD OR PLAY position.
It will work then...

i know what to do next brother go to field or a soccer field and trow the bloddy thing away

This error indicates a cassette mechanism malfunction.
It happens usually when you don't operate the camecorder for long time
leaving the cassette inside and the battery attached.
Solution:
1. Open the cassette housing and nock GENTLY with your finger tip
on the cassette cabinet (particularly on the position marked "push") until
the cassette is released.
2. Push on the right place (marked "push") to close and then close the
cassette housing
3. Operate the cassette (play, fast forward/backward).
Repeat the above steps several times until the problem is gone.
Advise: Remove the battery and cassette when leaving the camecorder
for long period without being operated, and store the camcorder in a
dust/humidity protected place.
Hope this can help.

send it in for service... sorry

After a deep study of the manual there are two reset buttons. One on the remote (pg 8 #4). The camera reset is next to the tape eject button. (pg6 #25). Hope this helps.
