attached my TS-E 24mm Lens to my camera today and the Aperture said 00, tried to take a picture but it came up ERR 01 and on the back it said there was a communication error and to clean the contacts, i have cleaned the contacts but no joy, any advice would be most helpful...
 
I am in the process of starting to try and get a repair myself (slightly different lens, my problem only seems to exhibit when it is cold).

Here is the support email I got,

How did you clean the contacts? I've had this problem, cleaned the contacts, but it still gave the error.... Cleaned them again using a solvent and everything worked fine. NB: I'm not suggesting you do this... Just that it worked for me.
 
Hi Applebear.
Don't know whether you sent off your lens in the end, but in case you are worried about not getting it back (which I was), mine arrived back today, apparently all fixed (no report about what was wrong, but from the report sheet, it sounds like they replaced everything electrical in mine). An 8 day turn-around, to me, is quite a result.
