Hello again Dinkar,
Just thought of something I did not mention last week. Have you tried hooking
the T20 or a T32 via a TTL cord and the TL socket? I would try to do that first.
If the flash works via the TTL socket, then the problem is most likly a
connection with the hot shoe. If it still does not work, you most likley have a
more serious problem.
