I picked up a 'broke' Canon EOS Ti 35mm body, with the only problem I can find is:

Whatever keeps the tension on the release switch for the film back has failed. This means if the latch button is touched, it moves & the film back pops open.

Can anybody point me in the right direction ?

Does anyone know if the part that needs fixed is in the film door side, or in the body side ?

(BocaPhoto.com sells the door side latch)
