    How open Olympus E450 flash?

    I received a defect Olympus E450 (no power on) and I try to cleaning the power button, a big issue of Olympus camera.
    But the flash is opened with a logic command, I think, and I cannot open the top case because under the flash are 2 inaccesible screws.
    Solutions?

    I managed to open the flash, unhook the two screws that secured the upper case, and then I cleaned with isopropilic alcohol the pcb with on/off contacts and other functions.
    Unfortunately, the device gives no sign of life.
    If at the computer mobos I thought I knew something, I'm looking at this photocamera pcb like a little monkey ...
    At a brief, blind check, I found voltages of about 8V (the battery has ~8V measured after full charge)
    Is there anyone who has idea about how a camera is powered, current paths, etc? Or is better to abandon ...
