XA40 cycles on and off a/c power, no battery

[u18b]

We use XA40s for streaming 1 hr weekly.  Been using for 3 years with no problems.  But lately, the cam cycles on and off.  I don't think problem is the power supply, but fear something with camera.

Any suggestions?

Ours just started having the same problem after 5 years.  Renders it useless now.  Keen to hear if there's a way to fix this

Does it behave the same way if you use a battery? If not it points to the power supply.

We sent it in to Canon.   It was expensive but cheaper than a new camera.  But they fixed it.  Works fine now.

My church had 3 of these.   I tested with a different power supply.   This cam still did it- so it is not the external power supply.    It was an internal board of some kind.  Canon fixed it.
