It sounds as though the escapement rocker is not engaging with the star-wheel in the delay on camera 1. I had the same thing on my scrap PLC3. When you get the top off have a look at the RH end below the frame-counter. Between the brass plates is a spring which holds the rocker on to the star-wheel. If the upper tail of the spring is resting on a pillar deeper into the delay, then this is your problem. Compare it with your 2nd camera. You will need to hook the tail of the spring with a bit of thin wire and pull it out to fit on its lever. It is a bit strange because you have to push the tail downward to engage it with the lever which looks wrong, but is the only way it can work. |
