Hi,
Let me know model and brand of your camcorder or confirm it is JVC GZ-HD3 camcorder as shown in question title to provide you helpful info to solve the issue.
Thanks.
OK, Press Menu button and select PRESET and press OK/ Execute, this will returns all camera settings to factory default settings.
Now select Language and feed date and time, let remain camcorder On or battery attached.
Hope this info will help you.
Thanks.
Yes, I got model number and replied.
Does camcorder accept date and time change and show that when the process done?
If camera shows current time and date as far as it is getting power but returns to default time/date if power/ battery removed then it is problem of internal Lithium back-up battery that is located on main board. This Lithium battery has lost its charge to keep clock running in camcorder and need to be replaced. I do have service manual copy of this model and can provide you part number of required battery.
An experienced camera tech will replace it to fix the issue.
Yes, back-up lithium battery is dead, get it replaced by local camera repair shop to solve the issue.
Let me know if you need battery part number info.
Thanks.

I am confirming that it is a JVC GZ-HD3U 60 GB camcorder. Thanks very much for your help.
Just checking to see if you got the model number.
Sorry that did not work.
It asks you to change the month and then hit select, then date and then select and then time and select. After I do that it still and get out of that screen and then try to record it still flashes that date and time need to be set.
I had the same problem so I removed the fully charged battery for about 15 seconds and re-installed the battery. I then changed the date and time and it remembered the change. Hope this helpes.
