Does anyone know where can I get the internal connections for the focus motor? I mistakenly tore a cable.

Misham Faith. S -

I completed the disassembly. I did not replace zoom lens assembly however. I could not find a new zoom lens except some offers for old cameras that I could disassemble. In the meantime I was checking the Canon SX600 HS manual and I think I missed some procedures to try as to why camera was not taking pictures. So I decided to re-assemble my camera. BUT AT STEPS 11 AND 12 I GOT STUCK. I have not been able to re-connect the ribbon. At one point I had it re-connected but could not put the frame piece back without dis-connecting the ribbon again. So I dis-connected ribbon. But now I cannot get the ribbon back into connector no matter how hard I try. Is there anyone available with the necessary skills and microscopic tools to see what micro-damage I did to the connector? I live in San Diego. HELP!!

To continue: I got up in the middle of the night to give the ribbon another try. I forced it and sure enough—I tore the ribbon. Ribbon problem now behind me. Now on to Plan B. I need another frame/ribbon combo. The tiny frame is the one on the back of the camera next to the screen, which is underneath all the buttons. It registers all the fingering. Next time, I am going to cut a bigger notch on the side of the frame so I can get more length of ribbon to reach the connector underneath—if I have to. I notice up above that Misham Faith. S also tore a ribbon. Did you ever resolve that problem, Misham?

Michael Chilcott -

i also have the same problem with ribbon. step 11 on re-assembling is impossible to do

Umair Afridi -

To put that back together, you have to take the piece of circuitry that the buttons are on off of the metal piece. The metal frame has about 4 tiny tabs sticking up that make it easy to pop the button assembly off. After you get that apart, plug the ribbon in, and then screw the metal frame in place. After that flip the button assembly un over the metal frame and pop it in place.
