Title: Can a Sony D3 just completly not power up?...
Post by: jessedscott on July 15, 2004, 06:44:19 PM

It's kinda been sitting for a while. I have the original power adapter/charger. Plug it in, Nothing. Could the adapter/charger go bad from not getting any use?

thanx, jess

I wouldn't think so.  Do you have another power source?

I dont know why it would go bad from non-use, but... if you ever tried to use a univrsal adapter and the polarity was ever reversed it would kill the internal fuse and not power up yes. (Like if u have a radio shack power adapter with the removable tips, and you tried to pwr up with the tip on backwards)

Dude...check the HOLD button! - - - - - -make sure it's not on...

I watched 5 tripping guys try to figure out what was wrong with a D3 once...post Deer Creek...it was the HOLD button...
