Typical Canon EOS 450D Issues We Fix
- Err 99 / random lockups — shutter path, flex or PCB faults.
- Main dial skips or double-steps — encoder clean/replacement.
- AF front/back focus — AF unit service and calibration.
- SD/SDHC errors — slot rebuild and controller check.
- Hot shoe misfires — oxidized contacts or cracked joints.
Rebel XSi — Error Codes Quick Hints
Code |
Meaning |
First Aid |
Err 20 |
Mechanical fault |
Power cycle; reseat lens/battery; service mirror/shutter if repeats. |
Err 30 |
Shutter problem |
Try fresh LP-E5; inspect blades; likely shutter replacement. |
Err 40 |
Power/electrical |
Clean contacts; avoid hot-plug; board diagnostics. |
Err 70 |
Data/processing |
Reset; new SD card; firmware/board service if persistent. |
Err 80/99 |
General/image fault |
Stop use; full diagnostics to isolate shutter/sensor/firmware path. |
Pro Tips for EOS 450D
- Use quality SDHC Class 10; avoid microSD adapters.
- Keep the main dial and hot shoe contacts clean to prevent skips and misfires.
- Store LP-E5 at 40–60% charge; full cycle occasionally for calibration.
- Avoid twisting the LCD cover in cold; plastic becomes brittle.
- If OVF focus differs from Live View, schedule AF unit calibration.
FAQ
1. The camera won’t power on or shuts off under load.
We test LP-E5 packs, DC-DC rails, fuses and protection, then restore the failing stage.
2. Main dial scrolls erratically.
We clean or replace the encoder, rework contacts and verify input logic.
3. Err 20/30/99 appears intermittently.
We isolate shutter/mirror flex and PCB paths, replace weak parts and stress-test.
4. Hot shoe misfires with speedlights.
We clean contacts, reflow cracked joints and validate sync timing.
5. SD slot errors or “Card not recognized”.
We rebuild the slot, straighten/replace pins, validate controller lines and test with certified media.
6. Stuck on logo / boot loop.
We perform a service reflash, verify boot partitions and check NAND integrity.
