Cameras ready, prepare the flash.
  • Cameras ready, prepare the flash. You will now access the flash capacitor. This can be dangerous. If you are not sure, do not continue.

  • The capacitor for the flash can hold dangerously high voltages. I measured 260V across the terminals 2hrs after disconnecting the battery. Either monitor the voltag with you multimeter until it is safe or discharge the capacitor using an resistor of adequate wattage. Do not short circuit the terminals of the capacitor.

  • Remove the screw below the white plastic.

  • Remove the lower FPC as well. This connector does not have a lever. Remove the cable by pulling.

  • You can now remove the little PCB from the housing.
