Schritt 9

Now remove the plastic plate that covers the motherboard.

Below and to the left of the viewfinder there is a vertical slot in the motherboard with a soldered connection to the flash capacitor on each side. Using a small screwdriver with an INSULATED handle, short these together for several seconds to discharge the potentially dangerous charge.
