Nikon D90 error message on top display


11 years 11 months ago #224570 by Number 7
I'm not sure what is going on, but my D90 is showing "err" on the top display. I've removed the battery and turned the camera on and off a few times and no change. I have removed the lens and remounted and still not change.

Anyone have an idea of what else I should check?

Thank you

Tried taking out the memory card, give it a wipe and reinserting? I had that problem with mine once or twice, also ensure that the contacts between ur lens and camera are clean and do the sensor clean through the camera menu. Think it more likely to be the contacts.

Make sure your battery is fully charged.

One sure fire way to see if it is a lens/contact issue is to fire it off without a lens attached (in a clean area). If that works, then it could be the lens itself, or the contacts. Same with the memory card (if you have it set to allow shooting without a card, I'm a canon girl, so this may be different). Watch and listen to see what happens. If there is a hum and then the Error, then get ready to send it off to be fixed (after trying a fresh battery). If it fires and then gives the error watch to see what the mirror and shutter are doing. Try a long exposure with no lens to see if you shutter is acting as it should. Hope you can figure it out and get back to taking pictures soon.

Not sure about the message but when taking out the battery you might try taking out the SD card as well. Also I know on my D80 one of the rear buttons got pushed in and stuck which caused that. Check all of the lever sets for AF and metering and so on and make sure they are not stuck in between.

Check your lens. We had the same issue occur and it was as simple as this little switch being accidentally moved into the opposite position when taking the lens on and off the camera. As tiny as it is, it went un-noticed and we switched cameras until the end of the shoot where we could inspect everything closely.

:agree: If your using a D lens.
If the aperture ring isnt set to the smallest, it will give you the error.

I have no idea why my post appears 3 times. I really only needed it to post once. So sorry. It kinda makes it look like I was being pushy.

Sorry!
