PowerShot G9X loses date/time each time you take the main battery out when the internal date battery has been depleted (maybe a CR1220?) Looking for instructions on where this battery is inside and how to replace it.
Is dit een goede vraag?

gnid @jayeff the battery is identical to a MS614. It is smaller than something like the CR1220 etc. Check the characteristics on here The Battery is readily available at online stores etc. Check this video on the disassembly of your camera.

So, where the battery located? did you find it? @jayeff
Hi. The battery is located on the imaging/lens assembly. You have to take the camera apart. It's not that difficult if you know what you're doing - but keep track of where the screws go as there's different sizes and loads of them.
Please take a look at the pictures here. Remember that the replacement battery has to be rechargeable.
What is the type of the battery? I would prefer to source the battery before popping the G9X open.
I Googled Canon and it says the G9X doesn't have a replaceable internal battery. Is this true????
Does the MS614 battery have attached pins, or is it just the battery? Also would anyone know where to find a service/repair manual? Just for disassembly/re-assembly sake. Thanks! -brian

Hi,
I couldn’t find the service manual for a G9 X but here’s the service manual for a G9 that may help.
Here’s an image from the manual showing the location of the backup battery. The Canon part number is WK1-5140-000 but searching online using the part number, indicates that it is no longer held in stock by various suppliers but can be ordered.
I assume that the battery will be the same for your model as it is a battery that is commonly used (according to the part number) in other Canon Powershot and IXUS models as well.
Maybe once you have accessed the battery, the markings on it will tell you what it is and that you can find it more easily.

Hello,
I asked Canon, and I paste their answer (in french but GTranslate will do the job for you) :
Avant toute chose, je tiens à vous signaler que cette opération est très délicate, elle nécessite la déconnexion et reconnexion de plusieurs flexibles, de dessouder l’ancienne batterie puis ressouder la nouvelle.
Il faut faire très attention ! au circuit flash (s’agissant d’un circuit haute tension, prenez garde à éviter les chocs électriques et les courts circuits avec d’autre composants).
Nous vous conseillons d’enlever la batterie de l’appareil plusieurs jours avant le démontage, pour que le condensateur du flash se décharge et de ne pas y toucher (outils et mains).
La référence de la batterie est WK1-5197-000 disponible chez notre partenaire pièces détachées https://www.eparts.fr/fr/.
They send too pictures that could help (location of the battery, tips to unmount the stuff) but I do not know how to post them.
For me I will not try the operation, but let me know if you do an succeed.
Have a nice day.
