EOS 6D Mark II - won’t turn on after left on overnight

Hi community,

I just purchased a used Canon 6D Mark ii over the weekend. I used it extensively over the past few days, taking photos, connecting it to my phone, uploading photos, etc. I used it last night, put it away in its case, but today when I went to use it, it won’t turn on. The only thing I noticed was that I accidentally left it switched on, but I know that the camera should automatically turn off after awhile. My charger says both my batteries are charged. The camera is clean, looks brand new. I tried removing the battery grip, sd card, and lens and tried holding the power button for 30 seconds to reset, it still didn’t work. Seems like this is a fairly common problem. Probably going to send it in but i’m wondering if anyone has found a DIY fix yet?

Sounds like a bad camera, to me.

Even when it was functioning perfectly the day before? How is that possible

Everything works until it doesn't. Failures can occur at any time.
