A close up Picture would be awesome!!

Thanks!

I am just trying to clarify as I have been told several different things which are different, one person told me to remove a diode, another told me to remove a resister, now you are saying keep the Resister then add a diode between the Resister and the Battery? Correct?

I just picked up a SX 240 and it is perfect even the NiCad loooks ok but I do not want to leave it in there. The DX7 has some nice step by step pics for Battery replacement, I was hoping there was one for the SX240?
