for anybody whose camera is not working, i found the issue (for mine ayways)
the screen would come and go, work then not, then half work, then static, so i grabbed the control box and squeezed it, the video came back on, so i decided to dig deeper...
the problem is in the control box, if you pop it open (just pry a flat screwdriver in the crack around it) you will see where the 2 wires enter the box, there is one with 4-5 wires, ignore that, the other side has about 12 small wires that go in to a plug, there's the issue, the plug doesn't sit (and stay) deep enough in the socket, i personally am just going to put a clamp on it and use superglue to hold the plug in to the socket, i assume this will work.
EDIT: ok, so i looked at this, seems that isn't the issue, still having problems, i am going to try remelting the solder on the points where the socket is.
