Reference Kodak P850 digital Camera I need

There is no such a book. But I thought you will need at least a detailed manual. And this is a very good manual indeed. You can download it from this link.

I hope it helps.

I believe with this camera, even after you take all the screws out it has a snap lock on one corner you will almost have to break to get apart. Very few people should do this type of thing themselves and it will void the warranty when you do.

After the camera is apart the screen will come free, there is a ribbon cable that attaches it to the unit that you will have to unplug and thread free to get out. Then you need to take the frame for the LCD apart. This has one or two screws and more snap locks.

Then the screen itself just sets in the frame and has a space for the ribbon cable to the side. The whole thing is really fragile so you would need to be freaky careful when you snap it apart and through the whole process of re-threading this cable back through the frame of the LCD and the unit itself.

Honestly, I could try and find you a break-apart, but I would personally be very reluctant to do this repair myself.

Here is a video that will show you how to take it apart in 30 seconds.

You will need to remove all the screws, slowly pull the camera apart, Slide the ribbon cable from the screen out of the slot, Pull the screen slowly out of place. (it is held on by a little adhesive)

Hi,
Sorry to say that But there is no such information uploaded by any expert on websites. I was also searching for repair manual 4 months ago. I spend my complete 2 months but does not get anything. and Finally get it serviced. So I personally thinks that don't waste much time to get repair instructions...
Thanks.

The only thing that connects the display to the board is a ribbon cable called TFT PCB connector. You have to remove the rear cover to access it. Remove the screws securing the rear cover and disconnect the TFT cable. It is a rather tricky one. There is a black flap kind of thing holding the cable you should should lift the black flap upwards and then remove the cable.

Everything else is pretty straight forward as I do not think the SB-pop up should be tricky on this but if you run into trouble then get me an image and I will see you through it. Note that you may need to remove the PCB to get access to the LCD. Remove all connectors and remove the screws securing the lens and the lens itself if it is blocking your way. Also make sure you discharge the condenser near the flash. You don't want to get flashed by the residual voltage in the condenser do you? Anything else you find troublesome let me know and I will help you do it.

Usually, when searching the net, one can find a glimpse of light concerning a problem or issue. When you can't, there's always a reason. Having not dealt with this problem, I can only speculate why, and it makes sense. Removing the hotshoe will be tricky, since it has to be securely held, to support the flash. This will require either a pressure fitting to a secured base plate, and possibly a special tool to remove it. Most likely you're not going to get a direct explanation for this process since it is tricky, and also since it involves the flash and flash capacitor. There will be wires leading up to the hotshoe, and they will have a precise way of being loosened, or removed, again requiring specialized tools. Also, the possibility easily exists that one can become shocked by the flash capacitor, causing the camera to be dropped, and so it becomes a liability issue, and few would want to to be responsible for that circumstance, or it's consequences. I'm guessing here that the hotshoe is pressure fitted to a steel support bracket, which is in turn, screwed to an extension of the case, either preformed or spot welded or screwed to the camera body. It's has to be a precise-engineered assembly, and only going to come apart one way, without likely damage to the case, or wires inside. My suggestion is to find a camera repair shot that has done this, and go talk to them about it. They may explain, albeit on abbreviated terms, what is required, but it may give you enough of a clue to do it yourself. If you're patient, and a little political, you may glean enough to brave the process yourself. You may find a tech that will stick their neck out for you on this issue, but I doubt it, for the liability issues that could exist. Never say never, though, I always say. Good luck, and hope this helps!

Above is your user manual

You will have to get a service manual, this is the only thing that has that information. I have searched the net, for one, but have been unable to locate one. You will most likely have to contact the manufacturer and ask for one.
I must advice though, that this is no easy task, it is very time consuming, from experience, and very very fiddly as well. Another problem that not having the service manual, is the not having the Part Number to order, a replacement part. As without that special number, one simply cannot order or find spare parts. in saying that however, I have found that Ebay, is a great source of spare parts, mostly second hand though. I would expect also that you will need a set of Torx Drivers too, as these are what one must use to remove the screws. A good magnifying glass is a great aid too.
In my professional experience, I would actually advice you to cut costs and guarantee repair, would be to contact, a local or head office of Kodak, and ask them for a referral to an authorised service center, you see these places use original parts, the engineers are trained on only those units, and they usually guarantee fast reliable repair. When, at the repair center, you can ask for a free "Quote" as to the cost of Replacement/Repair. That way, at least you can make an informed decision as to repair or replace the entire unit.
However if you really wish to proceed, then... perhaps the following will help.
I have effected similar repairs by purchasing another camera, the same type etc, that has some "Other" type of fault, dissimilar to the problem the one I am repairing, then I remove the "Good" components from the "Salvage" camera. But, usually, you still have to have a service manual though. Again, in saying that, I have tackled cameras "Blind" as it were, as long as you are careful, usually if you locate all the screws etc, it sort of "Falls apart" or at best, a thin, knife of plastic will usually pop the case apart, NEVER force it. Then it is just a case of burrowing into where you wish to go, Now I usually draw, as I go, noting cables, settings etc, so when you go to put it back together it is all documented.

This may not have illustrations but you have a baseline on which part to loosen before disassembly.
