Sorry - its not PC .
It is FPC assembly that was defective. This part is located below the shutter release button.
Item code CM1 -7226 - 000

Thank you. Helpful to know.

This is the same piece I ended up buying, the shutter switch on the left of the picture has faulty solder joints causing intermittant failure to connect. I haven't fitted mine yet though.

If you were really lazy you would just spray with Deoxit and be done.

Also in regards to lazy once you have opened the camera up drill a hole in the center of the shutter realeas button just slightly larger than the straw that comes with the Deoxit. That way when you put it back together and should the problem retturn you need not take it apart again to spray the switch..just insert the straw in the hole you drilled. You can cover the hole with a small round stick on pad to keep it sealed in the meantime. Those pads are available at office supply stores as well as hardware stores in different materials.

Good idea about the hole. I will wait and see if it ever relapses before implementing it. Maybe Canon should put the hole in at the factory.

lol yeah or maybe Canon should have purchased higher quality switches that should not fail so soon !
