Hi all DIYers.
I bought a broken 600EX-RT
- Sold for repair, fires very rarely or not at all.
Received item.
At first speedlite was firing almost every time with camera or by pressing pilot. Then it slowly starts to die and now it won't flash at all. Pilot button glows red so the capacitor should be ok, but pressing pilot does nothing anymore.
Flash communicates ok with camera. Flash foot wirings are ok. No dirty connectors between cam and flash. So the problem is somewhere further.
What are the next check points?
- Flash wirings in the middle where is the hinge point.
- Bulb (new ordered and will be replaced)
- ???
Yes, I know there is some 300V inside and I am able to get rid of it. I have multimeters and shit
