Originally posted by sterretje So you either hear the high pinched noise and it stops or the flash ready light comes on (if they have one) after a while. If so, my guess is that the tube is gone / tubes are gone; that last flash just killed them. But it is a guess.
Yes, the ready light goes on for both flashes. Just that the flash won't fire. Is there a way to test if the tube burst? If it is the tube, is it replaceable?
The problem is that though the tube breaking (even on two independent flashes) is a reasonable theory, the possibility of the camera causing the destruction is also possible (until I know otherwise) and I am reluctant to purchase new flashes only to have them destroyed again. On the flip side, I am reluctant to send back the camera if there is nothing wrong with it. Thus, I am in a bit of a quandry
