Erorr code E061

Disable potential control by going into service mode Copier > Option > Tempo > F-POT-SW. Now copies can be run.
1) A solid black copy means laser is defective.
2) A white copy means you should check the Primary corona and HVT.
3) A good copy means you should check the Potential sensor PCB.

Replace corona assys

I bought the machine book and I was able to look at it based on him what it reports the E-061 mistakes.
Myself was able to improve it and now good it's working.
I say thank you for your help nicely.

E000–0061, 0071, 0081


1) Clear ‘E000’. Is ‘E000’ indicated immediately after the power
switch is turned on?
• Be sure to turn off the power switch as soon as you have made the
check.
NO: Go to step 3.


Oil thermistor (TH5), Oil heater thermistor (TH6; short circuit), DC controller PCB
2) Turn off the power switch, and disconnect J6019 from J2209 on the
DC controller PCB. Measure the resistance between a and b of the
following table in reference to the detail code; is it 1 Kω?
Code a b
0061/0081 J6019-B5 J6019-B6
0071/0081 J6019-B10 J6019-B11


AC driver PCB
DC controller PCB
3) Replace the AC driver PCB. Is the problem corrected?
YES: End.
NO: Replace the DC controller PCB.

check and clean the Primary Charge unit or check all the door actuator check if there is damage .it couldbe the laser gate is not opening because the (door)actuator is broken

its a problem of dirty primary assembly or the corona and grid wires are dirty or check your front door actuators if the laser window is not open,laser can't reach the drum and will result Error 061 hope this will help

e061 is a code for a drum charge error on the first drum in line from right to left i think yellow ? any way its either a worn drum broken charge wire if you have not changed drums in a while the other ones may be coding out next

this is a very old machine and canon do not make certain parts any more------01= yellow check corona wire, grid, drum, develpoer replace if necessary

one of your drums is worn is if you repost the sub code i will tell you which drum it is or phone me on 07764303923 if in the uk or 00447764303923 if outside the uk i also have all the tech info on all canon/ricoh models

Thank You
