    Try this... this has been useful for me two times... it's a little weird... but... works... beleive me... 1.- unload the camera... no batteries.. no tapes.. ok? 2.- with your hand ( 2 or 3 fingers...)hit the bottom side of the camera ( several times )... there is a sensor causing this error.. 3.- try to operate the camera.. it's true !!.. it's worked to me 2 times... write me back if succeed !! !!! sorry for my english !!!

      Wow - so far it is working. Since the error started I haven\'t been able to play back my tapes, but I just followed the above and it\'s working.

      Wow, great tip, and your English is not bad at all. I wonder if this will work with my GR-DVF31U? I\'ll try it at home tonight. Thank you very much!

      It works for me too. Brilliant. why won't VC just own up to their product's shortcomings??

      You're my hero, Juan (I've always wanted to say that). Anyway, this thing was giving me fits. I thought it was my firewire card (it happened when I tried to capture the video), so I tried it on my roommate's computer. Same thing. I thought it was the cable, so I came to my parents' house and tried on their known-good hardware. Same results. Juan to the rescue. Thanks.

      Iwas getting ready to video a 93 year old woman for her story about growing up and going to a 2 room school house when my camera sent up the E03 error message. I was panicky! I saw your suggestion and it fixed the camera. Thanks so much! D

  Unbelievable. I have had this JVC GR DVF 21 not working for at least the last 5 years. I read this quick fix and tried it. To my amazement, it worked. My recorded is now working again. Unbelievable. UNBELIEVABLE. Am I spelling that right? Thanks a million times.
