My canon 400d has just stopped working. When I switch it on the power light does not illuminate. I don't think it is the battery as it still has some charge left in it. I have had this problem before and even with a fully charged battery is does not switch on. any ideas?
I'm having finding a repair manual? Do you know of one?

Open up the battery cover and look inside with a small flashlight. Are the battery connector prongs OK, are they sticking out evenly, and are they not bent? Make sure the battery connections are clean. Try another fully charged battery, because the one you have may be defective and even though it's fully charged, it might die down under load.
Beyond that you'd have to crack open the camera to do any troubleshooting or even check the ON/OFF switch.

It might be a problem with the battery connectors.
They might not touch the battery well.
another reason, it might be the battery is dead or the power button is not working.
