have a nikon S rangefinder camera. open back look inside,see shutter cloth shutter curtains,look excellent as rest of camera. advance right top knob the film advance the appears 2 curtains connected,move sideways. fire shutter button and both curtains seem to move back original position. no photo taking possible. the second curtain is not being held back and timing out according to set shutter.because of curtain not held back,i guess timer not timing out. all speeds seem same. the 2nd curtain seems to have to be held back,now lens is exposed then set times would go off at set time,then curtain close,this not happening.can i fix this maybe a lever just needs cleaning loosening,dont know.have little rescorces to work with.my nikon F camera is set up same way.the 2 curtains seperate . is this a curtain problem or just the timer not working/
