Sony TRV900 Microphone Trouble

[Ambir Jicera]

With the camera turned _OFF_ insert the plug from
pair of headphones into the external microphone
input jack, sliding it all the way in and out a few times.

With the headphones then unplugged from the unit
switch it back and and test to see if it works now.

I am suggesting doing this to see if this will clean the
tiny switch which is inside the microphone jack that
may be causing the problem.

You could also try using a compatible external microphone
to see if it works that way.

I suggested using a headphone plug first since most people
have headphones accessible more than microphones.

Good Luck

Ambir
