I MADE MINE WORK!!!! With the camera off, I pressed and held the "play" button while I powered it on into playback mode. It actually let me watch the tape. I switched it to "REC" mode and still got the error. So I switched it off, pushed and held the rec button while powering it on... IT WORKED. Now I can power it on and off with no more error messages (so far)! Let me know if this works for you too!

Defective mechanism, 03 error states that a stucked mechanism is present. camcorder are smart it can detects error and shuts down itself for safety. earlier models dominoes the defect if the user is not quick enough to react when something goes wrong with the camera.

How do I get a jvc camcorder out of safeguard mode. Error 06
Step 1 Look at the camcorder's display to identify if it is in Safeguard Mode. If its display indicates an error number of E01 to E06, your camcorder is in Safeguard Mode.
Step 2 Disconnect your camcorder from its power source and remove its battery by sliding the latch forward and sliding the battery down while pulling it away from the camera's body. Wait at least two minutes before continuing.
Step 3 Remove the camera's cassette by pressing the "Eject" button, waiting for the cassette door to open, and lifting it out of the tape bay. This step is only necessary if the camera indicates the E03 or E04 error code or it tells you to eject and reinsert the tape.
Step 4 Replace the camera's battery, power connection and cassette, and turn the camera on.

Leave the battery out for a while. like minutes to an hour.

Mess with the buttons to help a discharge.

I'm getting an E04 ( error) when I try to record or play
Here is some information regarding the E04 error message 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
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."

This doesn't seem uncommon, and indicates a bad tape is loaded, or unfortunately, that the camcorder requires servicing.

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

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.

My camcorder goes into safeguard mode EO3 when I try to clean it.
I have had the same problem with a different model JVC. I haven't been able to fix it yet, but there were a bunch of people on a different forum that were able to fix that error code quite simply. With a tape in the machine, flip the lever to eject the tape, then as soon as you hear the motor start to whir, quickly close the door.
It didn't help me, but like I said, several people reported that that action fixed the EO3 error.

My video camera wont let me record or play
Greetings bianca50,

There is a known issue with a small button that becomes stuck causing your camera to display this error message. I would suggest ensuring this button is not stuck on your camera by putting the battery on a bit forcefully. This should eliminate the error.

Thank you,

Agent Dort

condensation error- Jvc mini dv camera I have heard several complaints about the condensation problems with this camera. I tried one of the fixes, and it worked for a total of 2 minutes, and then displayed the error again. What do you feel would be the average cost of repair for this problem? Thanks, Brian Heuett
