SONY DCR-TRV520 Camcorder Problem Identified
 

OK, it's the LCD panel hinge-line contacts. The fault has progressed to
where the volume bar is now constantly displayed, but while it was
intermittent, I was able to affect the fault by very carefully
manipulating the panel. Apparently, the displayed vol. bar is sending a
constant command to the microprocessor, which is locking out some other
functions, and generally wigging it out.
I sprayed contact cleaner into the hinge assy, without effect.
So...
Anyone here have experience repairing the hinge-line contacts? Advice,
etc. appreciated.
