Introduction
This guide will inform you with a step-by-step process on how to disassemble the Panasonic PV-GS9 body to replace the microphone on the device if needed. The reasoning of the microphone replacement is because; no sound is either emitted from the camcorder's speaker or recorded by the microphone. If no sound from the speakers are emitted by any beeps on the button push, no playback volume, etc. there may be a problem with speaker. If sound is being emitted from button pushes but no playback, there may be a problem with the microphone. The microphone is located on the front of the device, below and to the left of the lens. Make sure nothing is obstructing the microphone, and if this doesn't help the microphone may need to be replaced.
