Introdução

The flex cable can control every electronic feature of the Sony Handycam DCR-SR 47 camera, from the LCD screen to the picture settings. Replacing the flex cable can completely fix a camera that shows poor resolution or is not responding to LCD screen commands.

    • Remove the battery.

    • Use a Philips #000 screwdriver to remove the 3mm screw under the battery.

    • It is recommended that you wait one hour after removing the battery before disassembling the rest of the camera.

    • Using the Phillips #000 screwdriver, remove all six of the 3mm screws located on the side of the camera.

    • Gently pull the flex cable away from the hard drive. It should pop off with minimal effort.

    • The black guard is removed in the first picture. While the guard is not necessary to access the hard drive and cable, removing it can be helpful to show the cable's path.

    • After removing the flex cable take off the plastic guard from the side of the hard drive.

    • Using the Phillips #000 screwdriver, remove the two 3mm screws from the LCD Screen connector.

    • Remove the two 3mm screws that were exposed through the previous image.

    • Carefully detach the LCD screen from the rest of the camera.

What previous image are you even referring to here? I've been following along perfectly but stuck after removing the screws from the LCD screen hinge.
