dead game cams

Post by AntlersOutWest » Thu Oct 08, 2009 12:34 pm

I have 2 game cams that have lived a very rough life.. From being tossed around day in and day out by bears. ripped off trees by bulls. have had bear teeth sunk in the case to taking well over 10,000 pictures a piece..
I have tried to get them working but really not sure whats wrong.. They both turn on but will not take pictures.
I hate to toss them out.. Anyone have suggestions on what I should do with them or where to take them?

Thanks, AOW

Depending on the Brand, always check your memory cards. Try the camera and
see if it will function with the onboard memory.


Good luck

What brand are they? If you think it's worth the cost, you can send them back to the manufacturer to get rebuilt. But it might just be cheaper in the long run to invest in a couple new cams!

Give the manufacture a call I had a problem with my Cuddeback not taking pictures they walked me through a couple tests and we found it was just a bad card. Tech took 5 minutes...
