Re: Maxxum 5 No Power

The service manual is here: https://learncamerarepair.com/product.php?product=375

I would guess something like a blown fuse on a DC/DC converter board. That would most likely be a surface mount fuse, or maybe a through-hole pico fuse. Depending on your electronics skills, you might be able to effect a repair.

Otherwise, working examples, with lenses, are about $40 or less on eBay. I doubt you could have it repaired for less than the cost of a replacement.
