Thanks everyone!
oh wow, didn't know they were built in Osaka! that's so cool
Ah great! I love it here and will dearly miss my time here when its time to leave in 3 months. I have no plans of moving here permanently but if its possible in some way i'd love to stay here for a couple more...
I hope the shutter stays fine for now but if something happens then ill try the full disasembly, gotta start somewhere haha
Took 32 photos on a walk today, ill see that i can finish the roll tomorrow so i can develop and see if it actually works right, but so far everything seems great!
Yes, you just have to unscrew the tripod mount and one screw on the flexboard
Might sound stupid but i used nail polish remover from the 100 Yen store and this is the result:

🥳
I was confused by this too but it was just some piece of plastic stuck to the tape, not the coil itself...
It happened!
I was really scared of breaking the hard soldered wires between the board and the flexboard and had to use quite a bit of force to get the screwdriver in there but everything seems ok so far.
In the slot like it belongs!
Using "professional" tools to extract the magnet...
Hi everyone,
I am Nils, a uni student from Munich but am currently living in Osaka for an exchange year. That will unfortunately soon end though and I will return to Munich.
I found this forum last weekend after I bought a broken Canon T90 in one of the many used camera stores here in Japan...
I didn't understand how the system functioned and only later realized that I could have seen/answered the PM.
Thank you very much for enabling my access anyways!
Im trying this right now without soldering, maybe i can get somewhere here thanks again!
Cant, its locked until i am at 20 posts "due to spam accounts" unfortunately
Haha, i am confident that i can do it eventually 💪
I noticed the same, my main problem is that the screw is so tight that i dont get enough grip on my screwdriver. If i find a solution for that it should work hopefully
full disassembly is not possible because i have never really used a soldering iron before and i doubt this is a good first...
ive tried for 1:30h and it hasnt moved a single degree...
i think i have to give up for the time being until i find some solution to get grip on the screw
Managed to remove the bottom but am strugglinhh with the screw. I'm scared of bending the red circle part as well as the structure with the screw, it bends slightly backwards if I apply pressure on the screw. But thanks for the tips I'll manage it eventually hopefully!

Interlude...
As i just commented on your other thread (i hope it was Ok to unearth that?) your work is irreplacable and i will read along to learn more about my new T90 and how to get it running properly!
Thanks!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!
I bought a "broken" T90 cheap in Japan 2 days ago. It shot 5 frames in the store when i put in batteries and then died with the "flashing cursor" problem. I bought it anyways and since then i have been on a hours long research spree and the magnet technique only got me...
