Sorry for the terrible video, it's really hard to do this one handed. Anyway, the trigger on my canon 512XL is stuck. Every time i press it, no matter what it stays rolling. I found when opening it that I could push that little thing back in to stop it, but that obviously won't work in the long run. I tried getting under that PCB to see what's under it but I can't seem to do that without unsoldering a capacitor, something I am not confident in. Has anyone run into this issue or know what may be able to fix it? Thank you in advance!

I had posted this on reddit with a video but got no responses. This is a link with the video if it helps at all.

If you can shoot some high-speed video (with the phone on a tripod!) you may get a better look at what's going on.

But that board may have to come off. Soldering isn't so scary, just practise a bit first.

Ya I think I might just have to but I'd rather not lol. I tried once in the past and it went OK but scary
