Check the battery and that the meter is working ok. Set the aperture scale to M and the shutter speed to 1/100. Point the light at the sensor, operate the shutter, the aperture should be narrow. Turn the light away leaving the sensor in shadow, operate the shutter, the aperture should open up. The size of the aperture will not change until the shutter is fired. You will need to be looking through the lens when you fire the shutter. Cheers Greg Nixon
