My camera wont turn off, unless I remove the battery.
My Canon EOS 500d works fine, until i want to turn it off, and the switch does nothing. The only way to turn the camera off is to remove the battery!
It may be that the actual connector on the power button has failed with time (it is a 2009 camera..that’s a lot of button presses?) or there is something obstructing the connection (like spilled drink/dust). Try spraying compressed air to clear any debris, use a cottontip/toothbrush with isopropyl alcohol to clean any sticky stuff. Failing that you will need to remove the outer case (and quite a few other parts) to access the power button/board and change it.
This is quite a good video of the process https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hymECkC... to open the camera.
powerboard ($40-100+) is available on ebay as is the connector ($14).
Good luck
