Re: Help please Canon 400D

The off switch doesn't open the circuit from the battery to the camera, it just puts the camera into a sleep mode in which the buttons don't cause it to wake up. I guess there is a defect with your off switch 'cos it doesn't even do that. Safe to assume you've tried taking both batteries out, flicked the switch, put the batteries back in...?

Maybe applying some isopropyl alcohol around the switch might help - that often does for shutter buttons the get a but gunky.
