  I have a JVC Compact Components System Fs-Sd990. When I try to play a CD, a song will play for a few seconds then stop and reset back to track 0 regardless of the CD or the track being played.

  I have a JVC KD-G200 or 2000, which ever is the cd player for cars. Recently it started accepting cd's very slowly then would spit them back out. It would take the whole cd in but wouldn't play, then would just push the cd back out and sometimes it almost didn't make it out.
  Hopefully there is something that I can do so I don't have to take it back in because I can't find the receipt. Hope you can help me out. Thanks

  I have a JVC GR D30U, which i bought
  from a party that told me everything worked but ths film door wouldn't close.So, I thought I'd get it fixed,
  i'd talked to JVc, and they said it should be able to be repaired "Easily"
  I took it to a Service Center, and just got it back. And now it's in Worse shape
  than when i handed it in.Just called this "Repair Shop" back today, and told them all the things they "Screwed Up"
  for me. the only Prob. was E01, Condensation Problem, Camera in "Safemode. When it was returned to me NoW- the viewfinder doesn't work, only the LCD Screen, The "ZOOM" doesn't work, and the on/off switch, which has 2 stops going down, had one stop in the "UP" position, (I think that was the Manual mode, or Night Vision, whatever, it doesn't work any more.
  i don't See anything in that Mode.
  And before sending it out, it worked everytime. So, now they told me to send it back.They'll determine if they forgot to attach things and that...
  Meaanwhile, the E01 error, which was all that had to be fixed According to JVC, it was "Easy", so , What's upw/ this Service Tech ??????

  i have a JVC GR-DVP3U .
  all of a sudden, 2 things are occurring.
  1 - the auto focus is not functioning properly. It will go in and out of focus for no apparent reason. the lens is clean and the battery is fully charged.
  2 - the viewfinder is black. always. dead. this is the lcd viewfinder. camera is still functional thru the eyepiece.
  any comments?

    I have repaired this model camcorder, typically when this model camcorder has optical problems the camera also has a small dent over the lens, this model doesnt hold up well to impacts.

      well, i took it into 3 different shops to check on repair costs and they all averaged over $500... needless to say, i dumped the camera in a bag and tossed it into a closet and went out and bought a canon

    Exactly the same happened to me on the JVC DVP3U The autofocus stopped working without reason. I treated the camera like a baby, since it was very expensive when I bought it, so I didn't wan't "surprises". One day it began to make strange noises when zooming and the autofocus wasn't doing it's job properly. I'm in Argentina and the Service from the store I bought it (not JVC since this model never came officially into the country) began to tell me that someone opened the camera before....that was completely BS and only excuses (the camera was still under guarantee. Finally after arguing several times they "fixed" it without cost. Last reason of the misfunction as they told me was that the optical engine was bad assembled.... If this is right, then the camera was sold with this problem...since nobody opened it before them. End result: they didn`t assemble the camera very well, since the optical viewfinder cannot be opened easily and scratches the metal body....the noises dissapeared but the autofocus is still in trouble. Now, after about 2 years of using it properly, the LCD stopped showing the images, it is the flexible cable that anyhow makes a false contact. Also the small watch battery that keeps the date and time when the main battery is out doesn't work also. Really a disappointing piece of technology (I was very happy when I bought it, but now...never JVC again) I`ll stick to Sony which is a better brand.... However I need to fix the LCD and need to know any idea of the repair cost. Appreciate your help on this, in order not to pay much more than the real cost. Sorry, did`t want to sound offensive, but when you invest a lot of money in some device that should offer the same or more of what you paid for and it doesn't, how do you feel then?

      Christian, I, too, am having a problem with my autofocus on my JVC GR-DVP3U. Even while sitting the camera on a tripod and not moving at all, the camera keeps moving in and out of focus. Did you get any feedback on the focus problem? Sorry about your screen....I too loved this camera and I don't want to have to buy another one. Good luck with your repairs.

    I have the non-focusing issue with my JVC GR-DVP3U. I took it to a JVC repair facility here in Chicagoland. Where they said they would only look at it if I paid them first. They charged me 50.00 and said they couldn't replicate the error. That there was nothing wrong with my camera. Meanwhile I get it home and it's still broken. Still won't focus. Lying morons. Never JVC, ever again.

  I have a Canon XL1s video camera and a JVC VCR prosumer combination VCR mini/DV and VHS/SVHS. I don't have the exact model number handy.
  I cannot playback the tapes recorded on my camera on my VCR smoothly. There
  are dropouts, artifacts and pixilation. Tapes recorded on all other cameras
  work properly on the VCR. A JVC rep and other Canon camera owners have told
  me there is an incompatibility between the alignment of the record heads on the Canon camera
  and the playback heads on the vcr.
  Can you confirm this for me as soon as possible?
  I sent this same email to JVC a couple of weeks ago and was told I'd hear back in 5 days but still haven't received a reply.
  Thank you.
