Thanks for tips of how to go through the challenge of disassembling the Nikon maze, but the critical detail is missing. What exactly do you do with the round white piece that is apparently at fault at 10:55? You move the contacts up and down with the tweezers so as to bend them upwards? Is the fault in bad contacts? dust? entangled contacts? The vid is old, but I'm counting on your professional memory... Thank you in advance!
Bravo! You make it look interesting. I'm sure my D80 suffers with the same problem. I used to work on jet engines but not sure I'd want to tackle this without having some knowledge about the part I'm replacing.

Hi great video. I have just carried out this repair and am putting the camera back together. At 12:00 there is a small board that dangles when it is unclipped from the board below and is held by a single small grey wire. My grey wire has detached itself. The connection is still soldered onto the board but I am unsure where it connects to on the main camera body. Hope you can help. Thanks
DIGI SERVICE Thank you! your video helped me save my camera. Funny thing, when I got to the part it wasn't actually broken as expected but unbalanced and dirty. Everything's working as it should now. Thanks!
type into search engine - One fix for the dreaded Nikon "Shutter Error". Worked with some light oil and lithium grease (it is non conductive). How sweet that shutter is now! Yes it might be chancy but I bought it cheap and it was either dump it or do something with it.
Does the brush break often? I was under the impression that the plastic nubs holding the disc break apart and they should be replaced with a steel set screw,
Oh okay thanks! Yeah my camera was functioning well but after I converted to ir it started to show err. From my research everything is pointing at aperture which is weird because I didn't touch the aperture I only open the back.
Hi, thank's for the video. I fixed my D80 and now it works just fine! The only problem is that the flash pops up but doesn't work. Could you guess maybe the reason...?
Hi, i really glad that my video helped you. About the flash - if the flex and other wires are ok(put in place and no cracks) you should serch the problem in the flash PCB. There is two options - defective PCB because of discharge of the capacitor while you dissasemble the camera and the second option is broken micro switch in the flash mechanism (in the Top Cover).

Dear George, sorry for taking me so long to answer. You have to follow the above video step by step, but the most important is to remember where each of your screws came from. I used a cardboard and wrote down for each screw the moment I took it off the camera. If you do it later, probably you are going to forget it.
Hello thank you for the comment:) no matter what we do, before install the CMOS sensor, we make basic cleaning. :) This opreration is not included in this video, beuse sometimes take more than 15 min and will extend the video. Regards.
Hi. Does DSLR camera have any power sugre protection inside the body? I am just curious. For example, let's say I bought a new lens to my DSLR, but with damaged electronics. I put it to the body and .... the camera is damaged. It is possible?
Hide Mac hi, this will be the first case like this:) yes, in the power supply there is a couple fuses . Check them but this is really unbelievable that the lens will damage the camera!
Hi JonMichael001, thank you for the comment :) The skiped part is not critical :) After removing the screws holding mirror box , you should remove it. That's it :)
Good evening I wanted to ask you if you could show me an internet shop that sells spare parts to fix nikon machines with the various catalogs of parts to be replaced Thanks so much
Hi, what seems o be the problem when the aperture lever is at the "down" position? This makes my d300s viewfinder dark. But if i use manual mode even if the viewfinder is very dark, the pictures are exposed correctly. The lever should be in the "up" position when I checked my d700.
Thank you very much for this video! Very clear what is the issue and how to solve it. However, that didn't go to plan... I managed to re-assemble the camera, the top display wasn't showing any information. However, the rear display functioned and with the camera in manual I could trigger the shutter and it recorded an image to the SD-card. So at least I knew the problem was solved thanks to your video. However, I opened the camera again to check and re-connect the flat cable going to the top cover. Checked the other flat cables, now the camera is dead and makes a small clicking noice as soon as I put the battery in place. The 2 displays seem dead and the camera doesn't respond. Only when I put an SD-card in the green LED on the back start flickering slowly. Does somebody have an idea what could be going on in my D80?
Great video, thank you. I managed to disassemble the whole thing to get into the aperture control unit, and then reassemble the camera back! Now I don’t get the error message I got before and the mechanism seems to work fine, BUT when I shoot, I only see a full white (or pale pink) image. Does anybody has a clue where can be the failure? Thank you!
Hello, sorry for the inconvenience. I have a Nikkon d90 that had a similar problem. They repaired the mirror mechanism. Now it works fine when it is in manual and video, but when it is in full automatic the photos come out dark

Dennis hi thank you for the comment. Check all the cables and connects.. this is unusual symptom.. may be some flex are not in place or may be the brush in the aperture module is not positioned correctly :)
@@DIGISERVICEBG thanks for the quick reply. Well the brush was hold on by the second rivit and i made sure to check every connector and align the excisting sharpie marks on them. Does the aperture wheel need to be in the excact same position it was in while disassembling it? Mine jumped out :/ Would be a shame to throw away a otherwise perfectely good camera
Hi, u there? I'm having a "error, press the shutter button again" message on my camera. Sensor cover, mirror n aperture lever all r working abnormally. Any idea what happen with my camera? *all of those I mentioned above didn't stucked either.
Hi, after watching your video I'm wondering what the part name is called, I'm trying to save my dad D80, been serving for good years and we don't really have the money to afford a new camera. Thanks in advance
The actual part after all the BS unscrewing footage is at 10:40. But he doesn't say exactly how to "repair" the "Brush". He just shows him niggling with it with a pair tweezers, then fast forwarding to putting it back together at 10:59. Worthless video, because anyone can unscrew and take apart a camera.
Hello and thank you for the comment :) If you do not know what's happening on the video and whether to fix a loose brush or change it to a new one, you should not comment on this video even if you say "Everyone can dismantle a camera" :)
With all due respect, but what is not clear to comment on "Worthless video, because anyone can unscrew and take apart a camera." A loose brush, seen in a video that does not provide a good contact, and the camera shows a error. An text comes out and informs you that the part can be replaced or corrected ... Once again - if you are not aware of what you should do, you should not comment that the video is worthless. You probably do not know how much labor and effort is needed to get what you see. Still thank you for your time :)
@@DIGISERVICEBG I think Tim`s point is that the video should be called something like " camera disassembling" as the actual apperture brush repair is not really discussed in the video. Adding plain text "repair or replace" is not what the viewers are likely expectting to learn from this video :-) I appreciate making a video is not easy task, but at the same time the viewers spand lot of time watching it, dismantling their gear and potentially ending up in troubles as there are missing steps such as the soldering and actual "brush repair". Considering the potential time effort and unclarities in the video it makes me thinking it is more sensible giving the camera to the professional repair shop.
Hi Ted! Yes, you can try tis tutorial and for sure will repair it :) Even if you need to exchange the aperture module, it is not too expensive. All my best, Petar!
@@DIGISERVICEBG Then your video failed, because the solution is the REPAIR, and you didn’t show that. You also refuse to acknowledge or take responsibility for titling this a repair video, without the repair. When you learn to respect your viewers, and listen to their feedback, I’ll consider Liking or subscribing. Try to do better next time and choose honest titles for your videos. PS. It is an excellent DISASSEMBLY video... you probably should have called it that!!
My d7100 is giving me Err every time if i try to change aperture and take picture. It's always smallest aperture no matter how i adjust it.. lever is not stuck and it does adjust it but always smallest setting (all the way down). Whats the problem? Aperture motor?
Now you see why cameras that cost under $1000 when out of warranty are absolutely NOT worth repairing. This would cost at least $350 from a Nikon repair centre. A working D80 can probably be bought used for under $100 now on Ebay.
Hi, for this camera model you can pay under 100USD but you still don't know the condition. So better repair your old camera - knowing that is not damaged by hit or water leak... and will be challenge to do it by yourself :)
Hi George! The estimation for repair will be 70 euro. For more information , please, write us on service@digi-service.eu. Thank you! Don't forget to LIKE this video and subscribe to our channel ;)
If you buy the spare part, its value is very close to the price of the entire second-hand camera. The purpose of this video is to show that there is a way to rebuild the operation of this camera without buying spare parts :) If you are aware of the workings and functions of a device, you do not have to watch a video in order to learn it repairing. My video is meant to get the attention of everyone interested in the problem of a camera. If someone has enough experience and knowledge ... even before 10:40, he has already figured out where the problem is and what needs to be done.
That’s definitely a good option for a lot of people who aren’t technically savvy, or don’t have time for repair... esp since as poster says, the replacement part is nearly as expensive as another camera. Of course buying used there’s no guarantee the the replacement camera won’t develop the same problem you were trying to avoid fixing 😁 ... or not.
@@DIGISERVICEBG I missed the actual repair? I see the brush plate was lose with the missing plastic rivet head. Did you melt plastic on it to hold it in place? My camera is not moving the mirror. Motor spins but mirror only moves a little, all the way or not at all?

Hello, no , in my 12 years experience this is the only problem with D80 :) If you can repair it, this will be the last problem ;)
To be specific, what is the usual problem, the brushes or those little plastic "rivets"?
To get to the aperture control unit, desoldering is required? I might have missed it.
Yes, this is short version :) Desolder 4 wires on the top side of lower board.
I can honestly say....I would NEVER attempt this! There's a reason why camera repair companies exist....OMG!
Hey awesome video! Did you cut the black cord at the bottom? Is it important to resolder it or it can be disconnected as it is?
I got lost in the part that was skipped. Lol
Jay-Ar Deganos, it was desoldered :)
Oh okay thanks! Yeah my camera was functioning well but after I converted to ir it started to show err. From my research everything is pointing at aperture which is weird because I didn't touch the aperture I only open the back.
