If you are using rechargeable batteries or used batteries, that could be a problem. I am assuming that you are using new batteries and still have a charging problem. If it appears that the capacitor is not charging, it's not safe to assume so. Attempting to change the capacitor, or deal with it in any way could be very dangerous as if fully charged it has the capability TO KILL YOU. I don't remember ever using capital letters here before but this is a high capacity flash and the charge in the capacitor can be extremely dangerous to you. There are ways to safely proceed with a capacitor service but I am hesitant to even post it as the risk to the inexperienced repairer is huge. Take the advice of the previous poster and just buy another one. Don't worry about your english- it's excellent. |
