Do you have a link to where one can be purchased? Thank you. Ken

I was able to contact Canon (USA) and their tech said that a sensor had gone bad; would not be any more specific than that, and that particular camera is out of production and there are no repair parts for it. I found an exact match to my camera online; bought it and transferred the main board from it to mine. Now my “old” Canon A2200 works just like new again. Many people told me it was the battery, sorry people that was wrong. I bought a new battery, charged it, put it in the camera with the same results. Thanks to everyone who tried to answer this question for me.

Stopping on a steep incline with a golf cart; being electrically run, you have removed all of your forward kinetic energy and the 48 volt system, its motor and gears do not have the required torque and wattage to move that amount of mass into forward motion once again on the incline.  The ‘click’ you hear is the relay releasing the drive mechanism from the electrical power.  Hence, you coast back down to the starting position.  Best solution, don’t stop. Golf carts weren't designed to go up steep inclines; just a leisurely cruise around the golf course.  You could of course modify the gears and up the wattage to make it do what you are asking but that could be expensive.

Great guide, used it to tear down my A2200.  Found an internal battery:MS6145E located on the top ICB (where the flash is,) does anyone know what this does/powers?

My camera, according to Canon USA has a bad sensor(?) because the display fails after taking one photo, but they did not say what sensor or its location.  I tore it down looking for sensors and found one for the flash/redeye and a questionable object (I don’t think it’s a sensor.)

My problem is after taking a photo and seeing the preview instead of going back to “live” display for the next photo the screen goes black but the camera settings still show.  Would changing the screen solve this problem?

Thank you very much for your work saving post.  Had this completed in 17 minutes from start to finish.

These comments saved me a lot of trouble with my swap of drives.  Unfortunately the donor Mac had both screws stripped and I had to drill those out; took me about 10 minutes to accomplish.

Thanks for pointing this out and posting it.
