Dirty Head Indicator

[brendadnyc]

Just got my DVX 100B serviced, I have shot six tapes and suddenly the dirty head indicator appears on the LCD. Trouble shooting by using cleaning tape, but dirty head indicator persists intermittently. Tapes don't appear to be damaged, but I am concerned. Any Suggestion?

use the "blank tape" cleaning method. Get a new unused tape (usual brand that u use), pop it in and put cam in vcr mode...play that blank tape all the way through. And discard the tape after (dont reuse that tape). See if that works. btw this method is much safer on ur heads.

U can also open it up and clean it urself if ur brave enuff . Follow these instructions http://www.dvxuser.com/V6/showthread.php?t=6888 BUT use this picture cuz this is the dvx100b http://www.dvxuser.com/V6/showthread.php?t=6888&page=18 (scroll down)
