Никакие детали не требуются.

Now remove the back panel completely.

On the surface of the board,

The bullets apply to the three pictures on the step.

The mother board has two solder connections that need to be undone to remove the board
Don't attempt to unsolder the joints without previous knowledge of soldering
When soldering avoiding touching any other components with the iron

Once we have the mother board removed it can be replaced with a new board.
While the mother board is removed it is possible to get further into the camera itself to make more repairs.

Now we remove the bulk of the cameras components from the front of the case
- Unscrew the 2-3mm Screws from the right side of the casing
- Pop the flash up, to get access to the two body screws underneath
  - Undo the 2-3mm screws

Gently pull on the battery casing and the A/V ports to remove the connected components
Remove the small ribbon cable, from the right side of the casing

Unscrew the 3mm screw holding the flash in place
The wires running out of the flash will need to be cut and then the new flash unit spliced into the preexisting wires.
Now you can replace the entire flash assembly.
- Beware of the flash capacitor; it still carries a good amount of charge that could shock you or fry the boards
