Thank you Thank you Thank you!!! Is it toast, or is there something else to try. Ron, F60 is a general error code usually related to a failure on the video processing board. You could fix this by just replacing that board.
Try to place it in standby mode first by unplugging it, wait a couple of minutes and then plug it back in. When the 's starts, hold down the power button for seconds. The unit should then be in standby mode.
From this mode try to start it normally using the power button and see if it cleared the error. You could also try a complete reset by powering the unit off and press and hold the "Stop" and "Channel Up" buttons at the same time for a few seconds while powering the unit up. Hope this helps, good luck. Thanks for the reply.
I have tried the "reset" options and nothing helps. I do understand the F60 error is generally related to the video processing board, but I have found no reference to which board that is in the DMR-ES40V unit. There are two large PCBs and two small ones.
I tried your suggestion. It didn't work for me because my problem is mechanical. I found a great video on You Tube that shows what to look for on the circuit board if the error code will not clear and the machine will not start.
It appears there are a couple blown capacitors, as evidenced by the humped up top on the blown capacitors, on my board that I will replace and we will see what happens. Thanks for the suggestion. Since I never received a response from this post last year, I recycled the device. But thank you for the response, it may be of help in the future. Show 3 more comments. Randy Perry pinsetter I have found that replacing the leaking capacitors on the video board solves the problem on the dmr es40v.
I have successfully repaired several. I have found as many as 4 and as few as 2 bad capacitors on each board. They are easy to find. They'll be the ones with bulging tops. Capacitors can be purchased cheaply online. Thanks - I had a problem with my unit cycling through the 's. Checked the caps - sure enough there was one bad one.
I had this F60 error which went away after powering up the DVR with the power button pressed for 15 seconds. I am stuck. What do I do next. Any solution on this. It did not work. I had the same problem. I removed the screws on the back and sides of the case slide off the outside cover which exposed the DVD unit. I then removed the screws holding the DVD unit cover. I lifted the cover to remove my DVD. Keith kakkak. My unit had 5 bad cap's. Three 1,'s, one , one Got my cap's at Mouser's.
Unit works fine now. I ordered from Mouser also. Thanks for the reference. Replaced them and it is working like new. Sorry, I tossed the receipt long ago. Mouser's has a lot of capacitors but I was able to narrow it down and get the correct cap's. I'd never bought electrical components before. I called Mouser and they have people that will help you with technical questions and matching up parts.
Easy, really. I couldn't find replacement PCB's for this either. So my options are to fix it or toss it. Found one swollen uF electrolyte capacitor hidden under a metal bracket. Replaced it with one I had in my spare parts and it works. The bad one measured less than uF so definitely was bad.
Thanks for the tip! John Yates jcinpalmbay. I found 3 bad electrolytic capacitors in my unit. Purchased them at a local surplus store and installed them.
John Chufar jchufar. I checked and had 2 bad capacitors. Could just see them bulging. One uF, and one uF. Thanks for the reference above, I ordered from Mouser. Cindy LaQuatra claquatra. We have the same problem and we tried resetting it by both methods and the zeros roll for about 10 seconds and then it goes back to the F60 error code.
Don't know what to do??? If you still have not solved, I think you should take a good hard look for bad capacitors. If you do not know what they look like, take it to a local "TV repair person". It is not difficult but takes a little bit of experience, soldering, etc.
I have a similar problem and now will take a look at the circuit boards and capacitors that may have failed. Should be an easy repair. Octavio Almeida ofbaf. Judith Haines. It lets you fit a precise amount of video--anywhere from one to eight hours--onto a DVD while maintaining optimum video quality.
It's great for recording movies that last a little more than two hours, since you don't have to resort to the four-hour recording mode. A separate flip-down front-panel door hosts the FireWire port for connecting a DV camcorder. The only notable omission is a coaxial digital output. Lately, Panasonic has been touting the improved recording quality of its DIGA decks, which it partly attributes to new bit analog-to-digital converters.
The folks there aren't lying. We were especially impressed with the quality of its four-hour LP mode. The image was solid and almost totally free of the muddy, distracting video noise we usually encounter in our tape-to-DVD dubs. Our only complaint was that the deck had a little trouble with the tracking on our VHS tape, resulting in some slight distortion at the bottom of the picture which the frame on most TVs would cover and light, almost imperceptible static over the soundtrack.
No surprise, it delivered more than lines of horizontal resolution--the video output of a typical DVD player--in its high-quality one- and two-hour recording modes.
However, the deck hit almost the same score in its four-hour LP mode, which is quite a feat, considering that the other recorders we've tested struggled to reach lines in LP mode. In the six- to eight-hour EP mode depending on the setting , the deck's recording quality fell sharply to about lines--again, not unusual. In our test recordings of Star Trek: Insurrection , the peasants fleeing from the deadly flying probes looked nearly perfect in XP and SP recording modes.
In the four-hour LP mode, the picture still looked detailed but became murky during scenes with fast motion, such as when the peasants ran quickly across the frame.
We also saw a bit of blockiness in static backgrounds. The deck had no trouble with our pull-down test, smoothly rendering the difficult haystacks and jaggy-prone bridges in Star Trek. Score Breakdown Design 6 Features 7 Performance 8.
