Dropped the nikon d40x and the lence doesn't want to move in or out sincenikon d40x lens not working since, is it broken??

The bayonet on the lens is probably broken - replace the lens mount, you can find them on Ebay and instruction videos on YouTube

Lens motor(inside the lens) could be damaged already. The D40x focusing system is dependent on the lens, just like any other Nikon Dx camera except for the ones that has built-in motor to its body, e.g. D90, D7000. Try a different lens, most likely it should work

Time for some "tough love"...suggest you buy one of the new Pentax point-and-shoots that are especially made for people who continually drop their cameras. This one can be dropped from 3 feet and still work. Leave the good DSLRs to the rest of us.

check the lence is working properly then the focusin option is auto or manual the auto focus 18-55 lence is properly fixed on mount or not

the nikkor 18-55 lence is no longer u can chage the ed lence into vr lence is upcomming with nikon d3000 mout the coast of the lens is 200$

First, try it. If it still works, you're in luck. If not, well !!! Once a lens is broken, there isn't much that you can do, except replace it. Camera lenses are compound lenses, except on the smaller cameras. Compound lenses are stacked and glued sets of lenses, with specific distances between sets. If it is an expensive lens, get an estimete for a repair price. It might be cheaper to just replace it.

That lens doesn't have an internal focusing motor and thus will not autofocus with the D40x. Nothing is broken.

Your lens is faulty - have you dropped the camera?

We tried the same lens on another Nikon (D90) and auto focus did not work.
We mounted a new set of lens on the original D40x, and it worked.
Turns out the 2 year Nikon lens (18mm-135mm) was bad. Nikon lens have a 5 year warrantee. The lens will be sent back to Nikon with no service or shipping charge.

Thanks,

depends which lens you are using some Nikon lens does not work with D40
