CANON SPEEDLIGHT 430EX II - repair.(and disassembly)

[@rodsphotography1]

thanks for an informative video where to get parts for flashs

[@lunama151]

My flash doesn't work at all anymore. Do you know how to test the light bulb before getting to far and finding out is something else? Is there a number of resistance if tested with homs multimeter? Thank you.

What's the rubber thing called that shrinks over the wire when heated (looks like its seals the solder wires)

[@SurferBro1000]

Very hard to see what you are doing. What are you doing with the thin metal wire that comes with the new tube?

[@nanitomx]

For what i see here, as long as i just unsolder old bulb / solder new bulb. It is quite a safe procedure. Is there anything i should keep in mind while doing this?

[@MarkowySerwis]

it is safe. no truble. but the bulb is small so do not use unnecesary force and make good insulation. there is high voltage there.

[@snillet1992]

I just did this, and i accidently broke a tiny cable that's black and runs to the top of the white part of the flash, when heating the shrink tube with a lighter. I fixed that error by only shrinktubing the splitted cable together, flash works fine yet atleast. No idea what that optical cable was for.

How about disassembly of the other end?

[@rgclicks7761]

you did not show here how to discharge the capacitor... is it not necessary to discharge the capacitor? thank you.

Mine has a rattling sound when it zooms - awful - but is an earlier model

[@john-lenin]

I need to replace the capacitor in a 550ex

Bonjour, j'ai une petite question sur un SPEELITE 420EX qui fait depuis peu me fait un semblant de bruit de crémaillère à chaque recharge. Est-ce que quelqu'un aurait une idée ? MERCI d'avance.

I've replaced the bulb - it can output power to expose correctly at F11 but changing the manual power setting gives the same power. A few people had this problem without a solution. If anyone else found a solution I'm all ears. I reckon a chip is broken.
