Something that has saved my bacon more than once is to pick up a can of "contact cleaner" from Radio Shack. It's under a lot of pressure so you have to be careful with it. It's close to $10 a can. I've sprayed some under the off/on switch on different cameras, let it sit for a which and then turn the switch on and off a number of times. Contacts often get slightly corroded and this cleaner really works. I've actually brought cameras back from the dead using contact cleaner. Then again, with the age of the OM1s, the battery contact wire may need replacing. Good luck. |
