E03 TU & SUP REEL FG

In the case no REEL FG is produced for 4 seconds

or more in the capstan rotation mode after

loading was complete, the mechanism mode

is shifted to STOP with the pinch roller set off.

This error is defined as [E03].

However, no REEL EMG is detected in the

SLOW/STILL mode.

1. The idler gear does not engage with the reel disk well.

2. Though the idler gear and reel disk are engaged with

each other, the tape is not wound because of overload

to the mechanism.

3. No FG pulse is output from the reel sensor.

4. No power is supplied to the reel sensor.

5. Tape transport operation takes place with a cassette

having no tape inside.

6. The tape slackens and no pulse is produced until the

slack is taken up and the tape comes into the norma

It is writing: unit in safeguard more eject and reinsert tape. However after reinserting tape it does not correct. Please help.

Safeguard mode follows a numeric code, go further down and you will see. In case "02" you need a service personel (something to be done/parts need to change with the mechanism)

Gr-dvl-520u trying to record or playback tape it goes into safeguard mode within 5 seconds. alternatly pressing play and still every 3 seconds advanced the playback without it going into safeguard mod

According to http://www.techlore.com/article/10974/JVC-Camcorder-Stuck-in-Safe-Mode/,

"JVC notes that you are also given a malfunction code when the unit is placed into safeguard. If it displays code 01, 02, or 06 you should remove
the battery and powersupply and wait for a while. Code 03 and 04 indicate that you should eject and reinsert the tape.

If neither of these solutions work, your only alternative is to bring it to a shop or send it to JVC for diagnosis or repair. Unfortunately, there is no other way to clear the condition."

If you are getting E03 or E04 errors on every tape you try, it sounds like a servicing is required.

I am recieving error E04 "safeguard mode"

An excerpt from http://www.techlore.com/article/10974/JVC-Camcorder-Stuck-in-Safe-Mode/:

"JVC notes that you are also given a malfunction code when the unit is placed into safeguard. If it displays code 01, 02, or 06 you should remove

If neither of these solutions work, your only alternative is to bring it to a shop or send it to JVC for diagnosis or repair. Unfortunately, there is no other way to clear the condition."

According to this, E04 denotes a problem with the recording media or the mechanical bits that deal with the tape. Hopefully trying another tape helps.

Unit in sageguard mode

"safeguard mode" indicates a hard failure, normally associated with the mechanism. Try ejecting the tape if one is in the unit. Do not force the mechanism open as it will cost more have the cam repaired. If tape is defective and can be removed, try using a cleaning tape first, then a known good tape.

Unit in safeguard mode

You mix te info with Write protected tapes.
Safe guard mode is caused by the motor that takes the tape out of it's case, through the mechanics and past the video head.
If for some reason the electronics detect that it's been done by too much force, the safe guard issue promts.
