I don't offer circuit replacements. Since a circuit costs, like, $250
(maybe more now since mercenary pricing has seeped into OA parts department)
, then add 3 hours labor @ $50 per, you are entering the used 4T price
range.

solve the buzzing problem or was it a circuit replacement fix?

(middle only) and around this an over-exposure patch which makes it kind of
look like a vertical eye. The rest of the photo is ok. This has happened 3
times just before the camera locks and buzzes.

curtain / shutter release delay? I'm hoping that this might provide more
support to the problem. Note that camera shutter is easily reset by
switching to B.
