I'm taking all of my readings off of the circuit board that's right next to the winder electrical couplings. I'm guessing that there's some sort of problem with the flex board under the top cover. Just to see, though, would it be possible to apply a short jolt of power to the first curtain magnet just to see if it's good? I was probing around and hit a mechanical release by accident that causes the mirror to flip up and down and the curtains to travel across the film plane(with no gap between them). Thanks again for any help, Ben
