Incomplete /slightly incorrect guide, missed some connectors on the board as in the photos they were already unplugged so it almost caused me to rip a ribbon cable.

Could you please let me know the exact step where the instructions are missing so that the missing information can be added? I hope this guide was still from value for you and that you could repair your gear!

Very nice guide, it helped me repair my A7 locked shutter (which mechanism was blocked by a small piece of metal). On step 19 there was a small ribbon that was missing in your guide, you can see it is already removed on the top left. There were a couple more small details, but overall such fantastic help, thank you!!
