Sony Handycam Error C 31 22
Sony is pretty secretive about the :23 code. It can't be found anywhere. However, to service the C:31 code, Sony recommends you do the following:Turn off the camcorder.Remove the battery or disconnect the AC power adapter for 60 seconds.Insert the battery or reconnect the AC

adapter.Turn on the camcorder.If the error message appears, service may be required.If your camcorder still shows the same error code, then you'll have to send in your camcorder for service. Chieh Cheng Wed Jan 26 17:35:05 PST 2005 I had this error message on my TRV16e. It only happened on one tape (mostly) and there was no way this tape would play. Played Ok in another machine though. I get paranoid now every time I put a tape in waiting for the beep beep noise. Pete Sun, 19 Jun 2005 15:13:40 -0700 sony handycam reinsert cassette error I don't know what the heck it is but is seems to come up when I don't use it for a while then I try to go immedeatly to the VCR function. Then I can't use it at all. I have never had the code when I pick it up and go directly to record mode??? I dunno. I also have the trc250 Ryan Wed, 10 Aug 2005 12:40:06 -0700 This may seem silly, but it worked for me. I found this on another discussion forum. Try smacking the side of the camera relatively hard with the palm of your hand. Eject the tape and reinsert. You may need to do this a couple of times. Surprisingly it worked for me.. Debbie Sat, 13 Aug 2005 11:38:25 -0700 I just turned the camcorder on its side and hit rewind. It seemed to go away.Maybe the gears are getting worn. BTW I have a Sony TRV 510Good Luck Jeff Sun, 14 Aug 2005 23:23:29 -0700 had this problem for couple of days. i tried cleaning it but still nothing would get this error out, but i tried what Debbie said to do "smacking the side of the camera relatively hard with the palm of your hand" and it worked. thanx Debbie Frank Fri, 19 Aug 2005 10:02:46 -0700 I have the same Camcoder DCR-trv250 also. The same error message was given to me and I tried the whole owners manual "fix" which didn't work. It is good to know I am not the only one that has a faulty camcorder! I tried Sony cutomer service and they told me to go get it serviced. I
May 13, 2008 Sony HandyCam c31.23 , 31.23 error easy fix Ok this might be old knowledge but I just found out about it and wanted to share this bit of knowledge with someone that may have had the same problem as
C:31:40
me. Here is the scenrio, I was at my son's first Motocross race. I decided it c:32:11 would be cool to video tape his first race, since the way my nerves were that day it might have been his last race. Anyway c:31:42 I proceded to video tape his holeshot with my Sony DCR-TRV250 I have had this camera a while but really only used it a couple of times. All of a sudden I got a small arrow type icon similar to the http://www.camerahacker.com/Forums/DisplayComments.php?file=Video%20Camera/Sony/Sony_DCR-TRV18_-_Error_Code. eject icon, and the error code c31.23. What a crappy thing to have happen while it was a milestone of my sons racing career.Well I manage to find a quick fix, the technical tap or rather smack. In my frustrations I smacked the camera pretty hard and low and behold it worked. Well it was a big pain to wack my camera all the time, so it pretty much retired to its bag. Where I did not pull it out very often http://wvstephens.blogspot.com/2008/05/sony-handycam-c3123-3123-error-easy-fix.html except to see if it by some miracle was working normal again.Today I decided to throw it on the charger and try to see if I could find a fix, and I found this Thread after alot of reading about how everyone wacks their handycam, I found a post from a user named Meredith. The suggestion was to open the tape deck of the camera and look to the right. Below are the steps to follow.Open tape deck, make sure there is not a tape in it....About midway back there is a black rubber roller in the middle of 2 metal guides.In the center of this black roller you should see a white plastic tube, this is a bushing to allow the roller to move with out wobbling.If you do not see this white tube yours has fallen out, so the search for a new one begins. Don't freak out a straw for a can of compressed air will work, or from a can of WD-40 will aswell. Simply push the new straw firmly into the center of the black roller.If you see the straw take a small flat head screwdriver and press down on the top of the bushing firmly, I heard a click but you may not it just depends. Anyway this should fix the problem it did mine, and I am happy one my camera works and two I am smarter than Sony :)Note if this does not fix the
