Faulty Timelapse (Construction) Camera - Quite Expensive & Totally Dead | Can I Fix It?
Buy it Fix it
View ChannelAbout
In these videos I attempt to repair various items. Can I fix them? I've been interested in electronics and computers since I was a child, and that was quite some time ago! (although some may argue that I still act like a child at times!). When I was a kid I used to take things apart to see how they worked, and occasionally could manage to put them back together! My career started repairing amusement machines and video games back in the 80's - 2000's as I've always liked computer games and electronics. I've also written computer software, and built and designed various circuits over the years, like making things with Arduino type boards and reverse engineering hardware and software.

Video Description
A guy called Malcolm brought his timelapse camera into our local repair cafe where I'm a volunteer. He said it had stopped working and would no longer switch on, and that he had previously taken it to another repair cafe, but unfortunately they were unable to repair it. Can we do any better? Let's take it apart, see if we can diagnose the problem, and hopefully repair it! I'm not an expert, but I do enjoy trying to fix things.
