Hello,
well it seem your mechanic problem. i have similar problem and i solved it.
first see the mechanical work, when the tape is insert it, see the drum head, is the drum is spinning? if not mean your flex cable in the top of your head drum may damage. or try to reconnect it.
if the drum head is spinning its mean capstan doesn't work, your problem is in here. try to change your capstan part.
if there still problem, i can help you freely just email me at otto.engineering@hotmail.com
or you need manual service i can share with you
thanks
otto

Unfortunately you have to purchase and replace the following circuit board:
Mounted circuit board JK-267
please purchase board from Sony and get a qualified technician to install it.

If is not fisical break od DV convertor on camera for firewire, then you have problem with damaged ic circle on board in camera. It`s very little chance that you can fixed that by yourself. It will be problem to change main board or circle DV interface. All of this is complicated and expencive. I recomended you to buy one of Sony cameras ,mini DV. All of that cameras can read DVCAM and you can put everything in your PC. This is cheaper then fixing your camera. I hope that I was helpful!
