Probably not, I have fixed several digital cameras by doing this. This is for a GE E1235 but screws and other stuff shouldn't be hard to find.

Well I decided to fix it my self.
1st: Take out all the screws (7 total) one is hidden under the av out cover. Make sure u mark all the longer screw heads and location with a marker so you know where they go. There were only to sizes so if you mark the longer ones you should be ok.
2nd slowly pull the back of the camera back (BUT BE CAREFULL, do not pull to far there are wires from the LCD and buttons to the camera.) Now there is a little tab on the main board holding the wires from the LCD to the camera. Flip it up and remove the LCD wires. After you do that push the LCD wires back in and flip the tab back down. Be careful not to damage wires or tab. Put case back together, put screws in where they go, and wallah. Your camera should work. If not try again, and make sure your properly putting wires in. If it doesn't work email me I will be making YouTube video for this soon. REMEMBER TRY AT YOUR OWN RISK!!! I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE YOU CAUSE!!!

My granddaughter's Vtech camera worked fine until the batteries ran down. I changed the batteries and now it will not turn on. HELP.

Make sure the batteries are oriented correctly. Each side one should face up and one should face down. The flat bottom of the battery should be facing the spring like part of the battery chamber. If the batteries are not in correctly it will not start.

I in stalled new battarys in Vtech kidszoom it came on 2 min later it switch off it won't stay on

Try with different band batteries. Most probably it is an issue with the Camera. The life of these type of Cameras are very shot.. Infact kids grow very faster.. Press the reset button, it it has.. If the issue persists with different batteries, it would be good if you for a local service to save the cost.

How do i charge this vtech kidszoom camera

I watched some videos about this toy camera and it seams that it doesn't came with a charger so ...it means that either has one -use batteries that needs to be changed or I suspect that it is charging on that data cable when is plugged on the pc ...just like a usb charged mp3 player or so ...
In short chek if it got batteries if not plug it into the usb cable and look at the display ..it will more than sure ask for a choosing ...and one is to connect and the other to charge ..or it will just start charging without any other task ...

New batteries but wont turn on - Kids Vtech Camera

Your problem may be due to corrosion on the battery contacts inside the camera which can prevent the full power of the batteries from flowing into the camera. Try this free fix before you do anything else: remove the batteries and wipe the camera contacts firmly with a dry cloth (heavy corrosion may require cleaning with a wire brush, steel wool, or sandpaper). Remove any residue that may have fallen into the battery compartment during cleaning, then wipe both ends of the batteries and place them back in the camera. This cleaning clears the problem about 90% of the time. If it doesn't work for you, the camera may have a problem that requires professional repair.

Vtech kidizoom camera

We had the same issue. After turning on, nothing on the view screen and the buttons didn't work. The camera could turn on, the turn on screen and sound happened and we cold turn off (show off screen and sound)...even after changing batteries. It was like that for a week.

I found it had to do with TV connector slot. Thinking back, my daughter had been playing with the TV connector right before it stopped working. I took a small hair pin and put it in the TV connector slot, lightly wiggled it and the camera sprung back to life. I'm guessing the camera hardware was acting like it was still plugged in...hence turning off the view screen.

Anyways, hope that helps someone.
