i HAVE A JVC GR-D820EK MINI DV AND IT IS DISPLAYING UNIT IN SAFEGUARD MODE 06, I HAVE TRIED REMOVING BATTERY AND DC PLUG BUT NOTHING HAPPENS IT WILL NOT WORK ON EITHER PLAY OR RECORD, PLEASE COULD YOU ADVISE

hello

E04
remove and reattach battery,
Unit in safeguard mode.

Hi,, try to put the camera in vcr mode and press rewind button and fast foward alternately until the tape start to move then press eject few time
if its not a big mechanism problem you may be able to ejected if not that will have to be made manually
by removing the cover and look where the tape is hook in the mechanism ;i sugest to you to call a
good technician
hope that will help you.

Poor contact of drum motor connection(flexi found at the upper part of the drum assy). Solution, disconnect this wire from the connector and cut 1mm from the end so that it will make a new contact. WIre will be shortened a little bit but it still can work this way since this flexi can not be ordered alone, it comes complete with the whole drum assy. Good Luck

how do i get out of safe mode on JVC GR-D77OU? tried what manual said with taking battery off and putting back on and taking charger off and back on?

thats a hardware problem .u must to open that camera and remove mechanisum u can c there is a small board behind that mechanisum .remove that board and c there is rubeer which connec to caption motor . that u put right condition than it will work

I have this same problem but the cassette tray will not go in. Error 1 "safe mode". I jiggled the mechanism beside the rubber "guide" ( in the middle above the drum) and it works now!! It must be some sort of sensor??

Unit stuck in safeguard mode

Try to put the camera on default settings without using battery, that is using power adapter, do this 2 to 3 times, it will solve your problem.
