It sounds like your camera, the Nikon Coolpix MN35Z, is experiencing an error with the mode dial. The "mode dial indefinite" error message indicates that the camera is unable to recognize the position of the mode dial. This can be caused by a variety of issues, such as a malfunctioning mode dial, a damaged mode dial, or a problem with the camera's internal components.
To troubleshoot this issue, you can try the following steps:
Make sure the mode dial is not damaged or stuck. If the mode dial is stuck or damaged, it may not be able to move freely, causing the error message to appear.
Check the camera's battery and memory card. If the battery is low or the memory card is full or damaged, the camera may not be able to operate properly.
Try resetting the camera. To do this, remove the battery and memory card, wait a few minutes, and then reinsert the battery and memory card.
If the problem persists, the camera may need to be repaired by a professional. It is recommended to contact the manufacturer or an authorized service center for further assistance.
It is likely that the knob, (the hub in the center of the spinning wheel at the right end of the machine when you are facing it) is just simply jammed a bit in the loose position.
Hold the wheel firmly, and turn the knob to tighten it as hard as you can. Use a rubber kitchen glove to get a good grip on it. It should free up, and you will be able to engage the machine to the wheel/motor again.
It's just stuck. It is the nature of the deign that it can stick open (or free) quite easily.
it will be stuck in roller cleaner mode, that is mechanical. the only real way is to push it thether over to the left. with the power off the printer, then close the compartments and turn on the printer it can take 2 o3 goes as it will try to move it right. you have to get it off the clip that is holding it there. the cartridge is held in place to stop it moving while the roller is cleared.
The slide cover is very fragile and usually gets jammed quite easily. Try seeing if there's any dust or dirt stuck between the slide and try to clean it out. If it seems extremely hard to move and doesn't seem to budge, I'd advise you to not try to fix it at home and contact Sony so they can fix the sliding mechanism. If you apply too much pressure and try to fix the hinge yourself, it's more than likely you'll cause more harm than good.
Check to see if you are getting power at the outlet. Sometimes GFCI receptacles will trip with very little provocation. Also, remove the trips and re-install them, as you may have inadvertently jammed one between the dial and the case, causing the dial not to turn Needle nose pliers make it an easy job to remove and replace the pins. You should be able to turn the dial easily.
Also, if you tried to install a trip in a slot close to the current time, it's possible it may have jammed the mechanism.
The lens is jammed. There is an internal plastic ring with lugs/clips on it that is easily damaged and jams the lens.
Lens needs to be stripped down, repaired and reset
Remove the top cover (grasp and lift straight up), spray with "Tri-Flow, liberally inside. Pay attention to the right 1/2 and behind the front dials.
In Front, each dial has a small square opening on the side, use the tube included with the "Tri-flow" to squirt lube inside them. DO NOT use WD-40.
Run the machine daily for 5-10 minutes (set the dial "C" [top front that goes up to 8] to 0 also set the dial on top of the case to 0. Move the Zig-Zag lever (upper right) from 0 to 4 and back again. Respray with Tri-flow. After a couple of days, if it is still stuck place a hair-dryer or light nearby to warm it up to skin temp.
Between the temp and the oil, it should begin working.
Hey i had the same problem. Saw your post and none others. Finnaly i gave up looking and just started tearing my camera apart. My camera is a Kodac 7630 so the diss assembly may be a little different but with the removal of a half dozen screws i got to the inside of the dial. It didnt feel sticky but i took it apart any way and cleaned all the touching serfaces of the dial with rubbing alchohol and my problem is solved. took about 30 min and there was really no danger of harming the camera. Its amazing the just a little stickyness caused the problem i was having because i could push with all my might and the dian didnt budge. i thought a part was broken in there. i think this is because you allso have to push down to move the dial so a little tickyness combined with your downward presure makes it impossible to turn.
good luck
