Exclamation Canon Lens Repair
I NEED SOME MAJOR HELP

I have seen this happen multiple times to an XL 1s, but don't know how to fix it.
My XL 1s fell from the hood of the car and the standard 16x lens snapped off of the lens mount. The 16x ZOOM XL IS II lens mount is attached to the lens with 7 multicolored wires (Green, Yellow, Orange, Brown, Blue, Purple and Red). So I was wondering what the order of these wires go in so I can solder the wires back. So anyone with an XL 1s, can you unmount your lens and unscrew the lens mount to see the order of these wires and if you can take pics while its off so I can follow the pictures, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks to anyone who replies to this post and for your help.
-Matt

PS- Sorry the pictures are bad, if you need better ones I can get them.

Are you serious...

your pictures are so blurry who knows what is what...


do yourself a favor and send it back to Canon and have it fixed right

just my opinion...

wait I just had a thought... Maybe Guyers...he's a Canon guy... will take his $2000.00 setup and dismantle it to help you out...

Experience: Advanced maybe... common sense... ?

buck you forgot to add the tax which is about another $260.00 and if it wasn't for that I would be happy to rip it apart. Paying tax once is bad enough and I'm not about to do it again.
