I'll push the power button and the little green light flashes it beeps and the lense comes out just a tiny bit but then in stops goes back in and beeps twice and it's still off. Is there and easy/comparatively easy way to fix this or is it time for a new camera?

you need to change your power box there is a bad connection with the wires. its over heating you might whant to buy another at game stop or take it in to get fixed. the more you messed with it it might mess up your whole system.

To turn off the service light that is flashing red on your V4 BHM ceiling lift, you have to proceed this way:
1- Power off the lift with the red cord
2- On the hand controller, push on the PROG + RETURN button at the same time and maintaint it
3- Power on the lift
4- Keep pushing on both buttons, and push in order: UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT.
5-The green light will flash and the buzzer will beep 5 times
6- Release all buttons on the hand controller.
7-Push on the UP button many times, till your hear 4 beeps
8-Push the PROG button once.
9-Push on the LEFT button many times, till your hear 3 beeps
10- Push the PROG button once.
11-Power off the lift with the red cord, then back on.
The service light should be off.

Try these procedures.

this happens when the ps3 has overheated-try removing the hard drive and replacing then give the console a hoover out.....if this doesnt work try holding the power button on for 5 sec....if this doesnt work its back to sony im affraid

you might be holding the power on button to long. you hold the power on button until it beeps to reset the video output. try turning it on by using your controller. just press the ps3 button and if the red light is on then it should come on.

Maybe lens needs adjustment. The info on this page may help. Copy and paste this link for more info.

Hi,

you may have these symptoms,
Symptoms :

1. After pressing the power button in capture mode, the lens would extend and a slight humming from what appeared to be the auto focus motor could be heard for about 5 seconds. When the motor stopped humming, the camera would beep and display E:61:00 in the LCD Screen.
2. Camera would extend the lens but not be able to focus on anything past 8 inches or so.
3. Zoom in and zoom out would not work.
4. Playback mode and the Setup mode was not affected.

To fix this problem,


Do these...

A) Put the camera about a half inch from a hard surface.
B) Let the lense go out and hit the surface and retract a little bit. Let it go out all the way when it tries the next time.

If that doesnt fix it, try this:
A) Turn it on and let the lense go out fully
B) See where the lens comes out of the camera? The little round crack that surrounds it? Wiggle the lense a bit and blow in there a bit. (Be sure not to blow on the lense!)

Now turn it off/on again, and it should be fixed!


If not, try these steps a few more times. If still nothing, then I suggest you to call Sony, but this DID work for 90%, so hopefully it''ll work for you :)

Thanx for using fixya,
Cheers.

well..disconnect from computer first

turn off power

unplug from wall(it's installed in wall, right?)

press power on button down, after 30 sec of off time

plug it back in with power button held for 10 sec

see if that helps a bit

how about give us our money back!

Before we begin we?ll need some more historical information: -Was this a functional computer that just stopped working or is this something you?re building? -If this was a working computer were any new programs, hardware, drivers or updates anything that changed recently? -Have there been any recent error messages?
