JVC GRD90U recorder

has anyone figured this power issue out as of yet. Apparently ours is dead with a tape stuck in it. I would really like to save that tape?

Any suggestions to salvage the tape I would love, because apparently the power issue doesn't have a solution.

Thanks1

    Yes, power issues seem to be directly related to the fuse marked F6001. It is the main internal fuse but splits to two others that might be the culprit. I have dismembered mine to find nothing out of the ordinary. I checked the battery and found it to still be good. Leave it to me to look over the obvious... the fuse!! you should be able to find a replacement for under $10 (radio shack or comp usa? ) and put it in yourself if you feel bold and think you can seperate the unit from it's plastic cage. I couldn't tell you why these units seem to be so notorious for shorting their fuses, but I can tell you that I probably overwhelmed mine when I attempted to fuse a mic jack on the av/s-video circuit board...... Won't try that again. Good luck everybody

      I saw the fuse, looked ok, but it was so tiny, it didn't look possible to replace. Am I missing something??
