This is a common problem. The code indicates that the sensor for the supply reel has indicated lack of motion. If you have a cleaning tape, try it first because if the head drum hesitates, reel error codes often appear. If this doesn't help you are in for a service situation. There are other electronic failures that can cause false codes and operations in many cases. These usually involve cable connection failure. You still need a qualified servicer.

-make sure that your tape is clean and dry -clean the tape head inside the tape deck if you have a video head tape cleaner *tape head: the one that reads the tape inside the camcorder.its the metal thing at the bottom inside the tape deck. -or you can use a soft and dry Q-tip to clean it(dont use any liquid cleaners) *or if confused where the tape head is....just clean all metal parts inside the tape deck and make sure you do it lightly with a soft dry Q-tip.
The batteries are covered under warranty for three years. Sony batteries are know for not keeping a good charge after a few years.
If there not holding a charge, they wouldn't appear on the LCD screen at all. I the AC power is working fine, then that probably isn't the source for not getting a charge.
You could try lightly scraping the contacts on the battery and see if that makes a difference and recharge them.
the capstan motor of your camera is stuck up....check the capstan motor is there is some debris insert at the sensor...if nothing you find check also the bushing at the upper part of the motor....
This is a common failure in this model and unfortunately will not be resolved without a qualified servicer. The error code indicates a message for lack of reel motion. Most often it is an electronic connection problem and not an actual reel problem.

check the capstan motor if it is stuck up... find if there some debris inserted at the sensor...if nothing you find check also the bushing in the upper part of the motor
( c : cassette : 30 capstan fg ) ; your capstan
motor is stalling - try ( other brand ) new
tapes and gently ! swaying camera from side
while loading - if loads , your tape mechanism
is dirty or is going out of alignment ;
- -
if the camera will not unload tape ? the
capstan motor may be failing ( connector is
loose , corroded ) or - it is jammed and it
needs . . . disassembly . . . to complete
checking .
