Canon Powershot G@ Won't power up
I contacted Canon service, I could tell from the site application for
repair they already know what's wrong with it- gave an estimate $149 without even seeing it. So I pussyed out and sent it in. 1 week turnaround; it's on it's way back now. Im sure I would have just screwed it up taking it apart, with no hope of repair anyway. Prolly needed a syscon chip or pcb-which I couldn't get anyway. JR I bought this camera new in '03; has worked flawlessly up till now. I hasn't been dropped, gotten wet, etc. I use it alot. Now, suddenly, it won't turn on. Swapped batteries, tried the charger connection-nothing. Any thoughts, known faults, etc before I tear it apart? JR HOME PAGE: http://www.seanet.com/~jasonrnorth |

JR HOME PAGE:http://www.seanet.com/~jasonrnorth Last time I looked Canon just send back a refurbished camera - check the s/n. Quite a good service if fixing is economical... normally it isn't as you can get a better new camera for little more than the "repair" money. I had a Powershot fail last year... just gave it to an electro- optical wiz kid at work to salvage bits and bought a new and better one. Cheers, Roger Cheers, Roger |
