Nikon Speedlight SB-600 TTL Flash

Flash not charging

posted by Ron in LA on May 17, 2008


Hi, thanks for your expertise.

Two symptoms...
1) Doesn't charge capacitor, no whine, flash ready no longer illuminates.
2) After the flash is on for a while, lcd displays 'bat' even though I swap batteries to known good units. It stopped charging after a time of heavy flash use.

It sounds like the inverter circuit or the control processor may have failed. This is normaly changed as a complete module.

Nikon, or their authorized service rep should be able to service this flash for you unless the parts are obsolete.
