Canon EOS 70D: Error communication with the battery

Mon, 01 Feb 2016 12:22:32 -0700

Hi guys, I would appreciate any advice. I have replaced faulty shutter unit on Canon 70D. Shatter is working now and camera works as it should however another problem developed probably during assembly. When camera switched on a message cannot communicate with the battery pops up. If option continue is accepted camera works fine only the battery info not available, shows empty battery symbol and battery info not available trough the menu.

I have checked few time and all the connections sims to be in place. Does anyone know what part of the camera responsible for reading battery information to narrow down the problem.

My canon 70d started doing this for both pics and video. Is this a sensor or a motherboard problem? The LCD seems to be working fine because it displays menus properly.

Canon EOS 70D: Touchscreen was hyperextended. Can this be repaired or replaced?

Wed, 09 Nov 2016 19:33:21 -0700

So my 70d was inadvertently knocked over yesterday at a wedding rehearsal. The flip out touch screen was open and, as it fell, it hit the grass first. The screen still works and functions, but now it has been hyperextended such that it won't return to the home position when swiveled around and relocated against the camera body. I will probably pursue having it professionally repaired but I wanted to at least ask 2 questions:

1. Has anyone ever had this happen and then possibly repaired it themselves?

2. Whom do you recommend for repairs like this?

Thank you for your time.

Canon EOS 70D: Display screen shows "white noise" image after taking picture

Mon, 02 Dec 2024 02:30:16 -0700

I hadn't used my Canon 70D in about a week. Then powered it up. Everything looked fine. When i pressed the shutter and took the picture nothing but a pixelated white image appeared on my display. I cleaned the sensor manually, checked the battery, All good. The same thing happens when I switch to video mode. I guess my question is, Do i need to replace the entire display as I've seen on a couple YT videos? Or is something else going on here? Thanks for any advice..

Canon EOS 70D: When I take a picture my picture is a white screen

Tue, 01 Oct 2024 04:56:04 -0700

Hi,

When I take a photo on my 70d canon camera, it’s just a white screen. It’s not the display as I can look at old photos on camera. I have tried a different lens. I have re formatted the SD card. I have tried without flash. Does anyone have an suggestions before I send away?

thanks!

this is the image I see (regardless if SD is in or not)

it is no longer there. Just a normal menu screen. I thought I had left the battery out, though I will try that for two days this time!

Canon EOS 70D: Why is my picture pixelated white?

Sun, 26 Nov 2017 19:22:35 -0700

Hello, my Canon 70D has recently started to not take pictures. When I take the pictures it just comes out white and pixelated. It is not the ISO or anything with the exposure. When I go into video recording mode the screen is also white with pixelation.

The camera was not dropped nor was it dropped in water. It happened out of no where.

Canon EOS 70D: Why can the camera not communicate with the battery?

My camera stopped working in mid-shoot. I briefly got a message that it cannot communicate with the battery, then nothing else. I have tried two different fully charged batteries with no effect. What is the problem and how/where can I get it repaired?

Canon EOS 70D: Periodic malfunction of SD slot.

Wed, 15 Jun 2016 08:22:36 -0700

Randomly the camera will read that the SD card is in the lock position. It's not. Is there a sensor that could be causing the problem. Sometimes leaving the camera on will correct the problem, as will removing the lens and turning it off and on repeatedly. It can go for days and be fine then stop working. I've used canned air sprayed into the SD slot, which worked once. But nothing works consistently leaving me to believe none of my "fixes" actually worked.

Canon EOS 70D: Scroll wheel skips and won't work 3/4 of the time

Sun, 06 Mar 2022 07:24:50 -0700

The scroll wheel on my Canon 70D acts up almost every time I use it. I've resorted to only using the arrow pad, but I'd rather have the scroll wheel working. Are there parts available to purchase in order to replace this wheel or the mechanism that reads its inputs?

Clarification: The wheel that I am talking about is the one operated by the user's right thumb. It is located just to the right of the touchscreen.

Thanks

Canon EOS 70D: Green lines across my images

I purchased a Canon 70D over eBay and on all the manual settings, the images have two solid green lines across them. This could indicate a possible sensor problem, however, if I shoot on Automatic the lines are not there - could this be possible?
