Just got a MAVICA CD400. It powers on well, problem is that there is always an error saying COVER OPEN. I had a CD200 before & this is very similar. It should tell me cover open when the disk door is open but even after closing it i keep getting the COVER open on LCD. I can not see any broken piece, the opening part moves up & down. HELP. I can't use the camera.

When the cover is closed the plastic tab on the bodypushes the metal tab on the coverin and closes two microswitches. (see pics below) Make sure the plastic tab is not broken and the metal tab is not missing. If everything looks good, you may have a bad switch inside the back cover.

The next thing you would have to do would be to take the cover off and test both switches with an ohm meter. Also, make sure the plastic switch tops are not broken.
