If i had to guess, i'd say that your self timer is the culprit: the shutter is cocked (explaining why the lever won't advance) and the shutter won't fire until the self timer runs down, which it won't do because it's stuck.

If it's the type of self timer that you press a lever one way to set it and it returns as it runs down, try gently forcing it very slowly back to its original position.... you may be able to get the shutter to fire, after which the system will be cleared.

If you succeed in this, DO NOT TRY THE SELF TIMER AGAIN. EVER.

If you don't succeed, you're going to have to open the shutter up and clean it.
