Canon PowerShot G3 Flash Capacitor Replacement
Introduzione
Vai al passo 1The flash of the Canon PowerShot G3 camera is operated by the discharge of a capacitor. A capacitor is an energy storing device that stores a charge between two conducting plates. Before the capacitor can discharge, it must be charged by the battery.
Note:
1.) There are many screws to be removed before you can reach the capacitor.
2.) To install a new capacitor you must know how to solder wires to the capacitor.
3.) Do not continue unless you have a magnetic pad to place the screws and a soldering iron.

To remove the red and yellow wires connected to the capacitor, use a soldering iron to heat up the solder and a vacuum to suck up the solder. Any other methods you know of will also work.
-
Take the capacitor to you local electronics store or order another capacitor online by reading the capacity off of the side of the capacitor. It should be in microFarads (µF).
-
Once you have a new capacitor, solder on the red and yellow wires to the same place as the old capacitor.
