CAMERA HAS NO POWER WAS WORKING PERFECT TILL BATTERIES WERE REPLACED HAVE TRIED OTHER BATTERIES BUT STILL NO POWER DID NOT DROP OR DAMAGE CAMERA IN ANY WAY

Sure, here are some troubleshooting steps you can try:

1. Test the battery: Use a multimeter to test the voltage of the battery to ensure that it is actually providing the proper voltage. If the battery is not providing the proper voltage, it may need to be replaced.
2. Check the power button: If the power button is stuck or not functioning properly, it could prevent the camera from powering on. Check the power button to ensure that it is working correctly.
3. Inspect the circuit board: If the camera has been dropped or otherwise damaged, it's possible that there is a problem with the circuit board. Inspect the board for any signs of damage or loose connections.
4. Update firmware: Check if the camera has firmware updates available, and if so, update the firmware as this could solve the issue.
5. Replace components: If none of the above steps work, it may be necessary to replace the camera's power supply or other internal components. .

There are several possible reasons. One is indeed the battery. If the camera powers on with a different battery pack then that would point rather conclusively at the battery.
Another possibility is that the drop damaged or broke the battery contacts inside the camera. Another is that the drop damaged or broke something else inside the camera.
First, try another battery pack. If you don't have one, go to a Nikon dealer and ask to try one. If the camera powers on with that, then buy a new battery and dispose of the old one. If the camera doesn't power on, then you'll have to have the camera serviced.

If you've recently dropped the camera this problem may be due to lens damage, with the camera shutting down to prevent further damage. If this is the case the camera will need professional repair.

If it hasn't been dropped this problem can usually be attributed to the camera's power supply. Make certain that your batteries are serviceable and fully charged - batteries more than one year old are candidates for replacement, especially if the camera sits idle for weeks at a time. Also check the battery and camera contacts for corrosion that can build up and prevent the required power flow between the batteries and camera. Even if you don't see any buildup, wipe the battery contacts and camera contacts firmly with a clean dry cloth. Heavy buildups may require cleaning with a fine wire brush, steel wool, or even sandpaper. After cleaning, be sure to remove any residue from the battery compartment before installing the batteries.

While the above steps will not cure ALL power problems, they are effective in a large percentage of cameras. I hope they work for you.

If you've recently dropped the camera you may have lens damage that is preventing the camera from powering up. If it hasn't been dropped, your problem may be due to weak/worn out batteries or corrosion on the battery contacts inside the camera which can prevent the full power of the batteries from flowing into the camera. Try this free fix before you do anything else: remove the batteries and wipe the camera contacts firmly with a dry cloth (heavy corrosion may require cleaning with a wire brush, steel wool, or sandpaper). Remove any residue that may have fallen into the battery compartment during cleaning, then wipe both ends of the batteries and place them back in the camera. This cleaning clears the problem about 90% of the time. If it doesn't work for you, your batteries may need to be replaced, or the camera may have a problem that requires professional repair.

If this response helped, please post a rating for me. A rating of "Very Helpful" would be appreciated . . .

The internal connection is damaged or circuit board is damaged . You try to tap on the sides of camera and check whether the message is disappeared .

Also possibility that battery contact is damaged so try giving power to camera through power adapter . If this works then you need to replace the battery holder .

If your problem still continues then you need to take to service center to get it repaired .

Thanks for using Fixya

when digicams are dropped most problems occur because some cables or wiring connections got loose. try taking it to a camera specialist to have it checked because if you open it yourself it might cause more damage.

Here are some simple things to try first for a camera that won't power on. They won't work for every case, but they're worth a try:

IMPORTANT
We recommend that you do not use alkaline batteries in EasyShare cameras because they may cause unexpected shutdowns and loss of pictures.

I have a the part used that you need. [email protected]. Thanks Papasgirl
