sony ccd-f70 no power help

i have a sony ccd-f70 and i am getting no power noting at all ive replaced the 2025 batt as it was dead ive checked all the circuits that i know of with a multi tester and all seem ok. i do get 3 volts now at the batt board after i put in the 2025 but the bat and the ac power seem to do nothing.
there is also a tape stuck inside of it but that should have bo bearing on the power issue i wouldnt think. but i just cant find the problem anyone have any ideas?

  Get a new camera, the old sony camcorders had a crappy capacitor problem in which to chapen the production cost, they used sea weed capacitors, which when leaked destroyed the camera as the salt destroyed the circuit board.

    What are you talking about. That particular video camera was a great performing unit, especially in low light. I'm still intent at getting mine back in working order as soon as possible.
