Canon Camera Won't Turn on Problem: FIXED! 

Update: The dummy battery was delivered today. I tried turning on the camera before using the dummy battery and it cut on and off as it should. I feel confident the dummy battery resolve would have worked too . I am holding onto the battery just in case. For anyone who’s wondering I used the camera for content vlogging yesterday. I was able to press the play button which allowed the camera to cut on after the battery was removed and reinserted. I turned on the auto off function to save on battery life. The camera was bought to vlog and as a lighter option to my fuji flim cameras. The canon was purchased refurbished from Canon at a great price so I didn’t want to return it as anything similar was twice in cost. Great vid and Thank U! I now have a better streaming option using the dummy battery. With the help of this vid and a Crafters youtube video that suggested the dummy battery as a reset option and reinserting the real battery after plugging in the dummy.

I’ve attempted various approaches with no success, but your suggestions have revived my 40D! Thank you so much.

May all your future problems be as easy.

Worked like a charm. You have no idea the trouble and money this video saved me!!!

Omg! It working! My old 1000D haven't touched over 3years . I did was on and off for several times and back again the batterry.. still holding the play button. Thank you, it saves a lot

Omg since last year my camera wouldn’t work, I was so disheartened. I tried the power on with the battery in and out and it worked. Thank you so much 🥰

I like this stuff. Sometimes a crazy idea will fix something. It`s like Scotty on Star Trek.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

I have a canon SX50HS and I love it. However, it fell, (not hard) but now it struggles to go on and goes off by itself. Do you have any suggestions? I just watched your video and you seem to really know about canon cameras. Can you help me? I can get it to go on but then it will turn off whenever it want to. HELP!

You just helped me get my Canon I got in 2019 to turn on and work again!!! Thank you so much!!! Subscribing based on this alone!!

SX70 HS got purple lines than wont turn on anymore, brand new bought it today working fine until i tried to connect to wifi

I have some nice cameras laying around I don’t use anymore since the iPhone came out.

Thank you sir this fixed my camera. I’m so happy thank you so much.

i have a Canon PowerShot A530 and putted all the batteries in even a brand new battery but it doesn't turn on whatever i try do you know the problem with it?

I see what your problem is--you have a CANON. Cheers!

I just got a brand new power shot sx70hs. I thought I was going to have to return my camera. Finally my camera works again. All this just bc I charged my battery.

Hello! Have yountried fixing digital cameras? I tried your techniques on my digi cam, but it wouldn't work. Do you happen to know some tips for digit cams that won't turn on as well?

Ha! It worked! Thanks for posting this.😊

Thanks when I click the image section but how many times we need to do it so that camera works normally I also have sx520hs

Not working:(

I have an SX40, but I don't use it very often. Mostly I just use my smartphone. While on hikes sometimes I wish I had it with me, but it's a little heavy and so I leave it behind.

I have two Canon Cameras Power Shot G7X Mark II purchased 2017 M50 purchased 2018 They still power on. Between both cameras, I have made hundreds of videos and still shots.

Hello. Thank you this process worked to power on but my camera doesn’t power off either. any suggestions or is auto power option built into the camera the only option? i purchased a m200 from canon usa website and got it 1/2/24 it worked fine the three times i turned it on and randomly today it turned off. i paid $250 and can still return it but like you a used one is higher in cost.

Mr Handyman 🤗

That worked. But my battery charges to 4.11 Volts when the original is 3.7 volts. So maybe .4 volts is enough to detect the overcharge.

🔥

I have tired all steps multiple times but no luck. My SX40HS is not turning on.

My camera M50 wont turn on pls help me out
