There are also another 3 switches that you might have to check. The capacitor shorting switch which is in the shutter and the bulb/flash/auto switch. I have some troubleshooting notes if that will help. If you are not skilled in small mechanical and electronic repairs then I would suggest you send it off to a repairer who can fix it for you. Cheers
