functions not working EOS 7D

[vixvalentine71]

Hi there,

First time at a forum, I'm looking for some advice on my EOS 7D. I only seme to be able to control the shutter or use the camera on auto. Anyone had any experience of this? I bought it second-hand a few years ago but I haven't used it that much.

No bangs or drops or water damage to my knowledge.

Just got a quote for an investigation which is £95 plus VAT before any repairs or parts. Feel as though I might as well order a new /second hand 7D body!

Can anyone offer any advice?

Thanks

Vicky

Try changing the clock battery, it's a little CR1616 lithium battery located in the side of the main battery housing. Instructions on how to do this are in the user manual or at various places online.

Thank you! I'll try that after work. Much appreciated
