My Problem: Camera does not turn on. When camera is turned on, the red led blinks once. It seems to be some sort of issue loading the firmware. Hopefully will not have to replace the motherboard as all the hardware seems to be functional.
My issue is almost exactly the same as this person's: http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=16487.0

My attempts at solving the problem:

  • Try starting camera with no sd card: LED does not blink at all. Screen does not turn on. No signs of life
  • Try starting camera with different ML card: LED blinks once but otherwise nothing happens.
  • Run the Magic Lantern Rescue utility: http://i.imgur.com/IupUgPx.jpg?1
  • Run the LED Blink test: LED blinks repeatedly indicating that camera is alive and loads bootloader

What I was doing before problems started: I was viewing images in the camera gallery when the camera suddenly started freezing up and the led started blinking rapidly. I shut off the camera and upon turning it back on, it was behaving normally. Now a week later, the camera is refusing to turn on.

Thanks in advance for any help.
