I have here a JVC GR-DVL725U camcorder. I was told a child tried to load a tape and now it doesn't work. When I insert a tape and try to close the loading door, it should lock in place and pull the tape down. The loading assy door will not lock in place, and even if I hold it in place, it will not pull down the tape. If I hold the door in place as I turn the unit on, it will pull down the tape. I see a pin on the side that looks like something should be holding it. I don't do many camcorders so I'm not sure exactly how this mechanism should work. Does anyone have mech. diagrams of this unit or could someone tell me exactly were I should be looking.
