Dropped camera and what broke was the rim on the very outside

1. Gently push the pin on the top of the housing, unscrew the black arm, open Clamp B and carefully pull out the blade housing from the bottom.
2. Remove the protective cover from the new blade.
3. Insert the new blade into the housing and the magnet in the housing will hold the new blade in place.
4. Replace and return the blade housing into your machine, Clamp B and the black arm. Tighten the screw close it back into the machine.

When I didn't see an answer, I tried it anyway since I already had the battery and little to lose. Undo the 4 small screws holding the back on (careful - don't drop them). Be careful to keep the small rubber gasket around the edge in its grooves. Do not take the workings out of the watch. There is a small silver arm running across the back over to a cream colored plastic piece with 3 grooves in it. Pieces of the arm are in the outer 2 grooves. Use something small to pry open the arm using the middle groove . Peel it back just a little and replace the battery. The watch should now be working. Snap the arm back in place, be sure the gasket is in place, put the back on,
and screw in the screws. Simple when it works.

They have little pieces that push on a ring to move it around. Open the heli and check that they are all inside of the ring. ~VLAD~

You will need the new actuator, regular Phillips head screwdriver, putty knife, and jeweler's screwdrivers.
1. Go to this link to view the parts diagram.
2. Carefully peel part #14 using putty knife.
3. Remove 3 screws part #43
4. Carefully remove part # 4. Note, there are fragile plastic arms that snap into place to hold the top of part #4 in place. I used a flat jeweler's screwdriver to apply pressure to the arms so they did not snap off.
5. Once you have removed #4, you will be able to see the top side of the actuator. There are three Phillips head screws which hold it in place. Just remove those screws, install the new actuator, and replace the screws. Note you may need to remove three Phillips head screws holding #8 in place to get to the screws holding top of actuator. Do this carefully or the wiring harness which attached #8 to #38c will pull out which adds extra steps (If this happens, see below).
6. Replace all parts following the above steps in reverse.
7. I used a small amount of contact cement to restick #14 but it was probably not necessary.

If you accidentally pull the wiring harness from step #5 above out, you will need to remove the circuit board cover to replug it. There are 4 tiny Phillips head screws which hold the cover in place. Remove them using a jeweler's screwdriver, replug the harness, and carefully replace the cover.

Look for three or four small thumbscrews around the metal rim that holds the globe. Unscrew each several turns while holding the globe with your other hand underneath to keep it from dropping out. You should not have to remove the screws completely. Just loosen them all enough to remove the globe. If there are no screws then the globe may twist into the rim light a light bulb. Hold the fan housing steady and turn the globe counter-clockwise to unscrew it. If it turns but does not unscrew then there are probably screws holding it as first described. They may be flush with the rim and you may need a small screwdriver or Allen wrench to unscrew them.

Top lid pull up. Look in seam between top and front cover. On each side you will see where top clips to front cover. Put a screwdriver in there and lightly pry up till clip releases. Front cover will now pull up and be removed, so you could get what fell in.

I had the same problem with this particular camera. Here is the necessary steps to fix your problem.
1. Take out the battery because you dont want to short anything when you're inside it.
2. Free yourself of any static.
3. Remove six screws on the outside of the camera. Note that two of the screws in the botton are not phillips head. If you have a very small flat-head screw driver that will work.
4. Pull the camera apart very carefully. Unplug the little wiring harness by pulling up the little black clip that holds it in its seat.
5. Carefully remove the LCD screen. You dont have to remove any screws here. Just carefully pull it out. There is a peice of double sided tape that holds it in in place so you will fell some resistance.
6. Remove the two screws behind the screen that holds the lcd holder in place. Theres also one or two in the left side of that.
7. Plug back in the lens wiring harness. This is where your problem was. It came unplug from probably being dropped.
8. Repeat the steps 6,5,4,3,2, and 1 to put it back together.

Hope that this fixes your problem. It fixed my camera.

I suggest you bring the camera to the Canon service rep in your area and for a few dollars you let them do it. This way, if there is any damage they are responsible.

I don't know the answer for your particular model, but in many of these cameras it is possible to easily do colaterol damage when changing parts.

thats very easy first unplug the stove lift the top it should stay up with the arms extended,pull the arms out of the slot and remove oven top , gently pull knobs off , remove all hidden screws behind knobs, remove the front panel held in place by 2-3 screws on top and under panel, remove 2 screws holding existing thermostat unplug 2 wire thermost follow capillary to sensing bulb which is inside the oven unless it broke off it should be there, im asuming thats why you are replacing it ,remove sensing bulb from 2 brackets holding it in place make sure its perfectly straight because it has to pass through a small hole, installaton is the opposite of removal good luck.
