    The bottom bar in my viewfinder that shows my iso and shutter speed and other features of that sort does not show up I had to replace the motherboard and after that nothing will show up like that in the viewfinder any help would be great!

    Sounds like Canon did not get all the wiring right when they replaced the motherboard. You should call hem as they should warranty their work.

    When you say that you had to replace the motherboard, who replaced it? Did you send it off to be replaced?

    did the replacement of the mother board change anything? ie make it worse
    To any R6 members is there a button press that turns that stuff off or a menu setting?
    on my M50 you can clear all those settings with a button press for a clear evf
