for gr-d50e
Open the cassette compartment, a little in front of the two tape drives; the small square, 3mm on each side, is your sensor.
Clean the two transparent sides with a cotton swab, and you're good to go!
Also clean the entire cassette compartment to remove all the dust. Do not blow into it, as dust will go everywhere!
This saves you from having to disassemble everything, like I did.
If you have found a solution, could you please share the solution you adopted?
Thank you.
I removed about twenty screws and opened the camcorder. Be careful, not all the screws are the same; make sure to label them for reassembly.
I opened the camcorder on the side with the foldable color screen. To do this, it is necessary to gently press to separate the side of the camcorder body that is held by a clip towards the front of the camcorder.
After two rounds of hairdryer on all the electronic boards, my camcorder is working again.
Indeed, I am interested in more information about the position of the humidity sensor on the GRD 70.
Thank you
Your message is over two years old, but do you still have the solution?
