hello there I have a sony dcr-trv145e, worked fine for 3 years until last week where the display is all grey and cannot see much blured and only shadows. the diplay screen is fine because when eading a cassette the picture is perfect. If I record with it and play again it is also all grey and blured. I will apreciate any help, looks like some thing is wrong with the lens. Thanks and Regards

I have a Sony dcr-trv140 that just gave me an error message of C31:23 with the flashing "eject" sign and a constant beeping. Disconnected the battery, changed the tape out for another one - nothing has worked. When the tape is removed no message occurs when the power is on. Read on the Internet to wack the camcorder with the palm of my hand and did so just below the tape door of the camcorder on the padded strap - that didn't work and then the error message C:31:42 came up! The heads have never been cleaned on this machine,. Ideas? Thanks, any assistance would help Steven Mitchell

I'm sorry....the unit is a Sony UVW-1800 betacam SP videocassette recorder. Upon power up the message is error02-403. REC inhibit appears next to this message. It eats tape. I have not yet opened the unit up because I have heard it is a bear to work on. Thanks for reading this!
