Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX220: The screen keeps saying "Turn power off then on."

Thu, 25 Dec 2025 22:12:10 -0700

I continuously turned it off and on all the time it said so and still won't go back functioning like normal, it was perfect the other days I used it but now it won't work and it's not the sim card either. I don't know what to do. Any takers?

( keep in mind I bought this second hand from eBay)

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX220: What is wrong with my Sony-DSC-WX220?

Mon, 24 Feb 2025 12:11:31 -0700

I have purchased some parts off of eBay to fix some broken cameras I have at home. After I replaced the screen and lens of the WX220, I tried to turn it on, but nothing happened. I put a battery in the battery compartment and plugged the camera in, but the screen didn't turn on and the lens didn't extend out. I have noticed that next to the battery there was a dim red light that was on. I don't remember if it was staying on, or if it was blinking, and how many times. I also don't remember if the charging light was on while charging. What could be wrong with my camera? Incompatible parts? Main board problem?

I am not at home right now, and I don't have my camera with me, so I can't see anything else about the camera and add that here. I will add more info in the comment below the question.

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX100: What might be causing the screen to be dim?

Tue, 14 Apr 2015 06:29:28 -0700

The screen, even after the camera has indicated to be fully charged, is dimly lit. This is despite have the screen brightness at the highest setting. An image is still visible, but glare is an issue in both natural and artificial light.

Dear Fixit,

I started having trouble with my Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX80 last year. The on/off slider was sticking. Now it won't move it all. How can I get the button to the on position and then fix the lever so it will not stick again.

Thanks

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX350: Zoom lever is sticking - can it be repaired/replaced?

Sat, 05 Mar 2022 13:58:54 -0700

The lever sticks in the centre and requires a lot of force to move to W or T… So just jumps all the way to each extreme. I can feel some friction when it does move - but it then just centres and ‘locks’ as soon as you let go. Is there a cleaning/repair solution, or can the button and lever be replaced? I haven’t managed to find part numbers yet…

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX350: Camera flap does not close properly

Fri, 15 Jan 2021 05:09:39 -0700

Hi all,

My camera flap could not be closed properly only on the bottom section. Do anyone have any clear solution for this? I had checked if there’s any potential debris and find none as for now. I’m located in Malaysia and couldn’t find any repairer nearby. Hoping this could be solved as been using it for work. Thank you.
