Canon G2 digital connector is loose inside the camera. Cannot connect.

I can see the digital connector loose inside the camera. The connector looks like it has two tabs on the bottom that look like they should sit in two holes in what I think is a circuit board (green color). I can jiggle the connector around until it sits in those holes but connector won't stay in then as I try to connect the PC connector cable. Any help?

You have to go like a surgeon, get the loose part and resolder it back on the board. Sounds easy but it is not - working on those cameras is a bear because they are so small and have so many screws and ............G2 is a great camera - I have 2 of them / go for it. Good luck.

In the communications option of the camera Menu, there are two options to choose from. Try changing the options. one of them works with Canon software to download images.

The camera has to be taken apart. Your solution of shaking will always be a temporary repair and in the long run will most likely cause more damage.

SOURCE: Battery door latch broke off body of Canan A590

The same thing happened to me this week. I called Canon Canada directly and asked to order the part (The battery compartment door). They gave me a phone number to call and I was able to order the replacement door for about $8.00 + $10-$12 shipping. Hope this helps!

Power Shot G2 camera is at date screen when you turn it on. I changed date battery and it will not let me change the date. Camera has only be used 3 times. The camera powers on and lens moves but it will...

I had a similar problem. I solved it by taking the rear cover off and reseating a ribbon cable that connects the switches to the main circuit board. This connector is hidden under a large plug in connector - also a large copper/plastic ground plane has to be removed for access.

A Fubar - whats does that mean - but your camera looks like it is one. A new camera I suspect is the next thing to buy But check Canon customer support- they may have a remedy for 'Fubars'

I doubt you will find such a thing- altough- Canon web site tech support may have a clue. but you should not need it if you have the skills to make such an item- just make it and stick it where the other came out.
