Problem for Nikon Coolpix S50 Digital Camera

Camera problem powering on

By jackal60 on Mar 27, 2008

" "

Nikon Coolpix model S50
Camera sometimes fails to start up. After pushing power button, green light comes on and after hearing a click inside the camera, the green light goes out. It seems like pushing on the battery/memory door on the bottom might be affecting the operation of the camera.

- My Nikon S50 won't turn on. I have to open the battery door and push down on the battery until I feel it make contact. Then the camera will turn on about 50% of the time. Its not the battery and it does the same thing with a new battery.- wlfherbs

I took my battery out, used a pencil eraser to clean off the metal area on the bottom and gently scraped it with a knife. Presto, the camera comes on without having to push down ******* the battery.
