Not an easy camera to work on, lots of fiddly pieces, however, try this link http://mypentax.com/PentaxMeSuper.html
Gives a full strip-down with some excellent pictures. Enjoy! |

I removed the top but I am stumped here. My shutter is closed and does not respond when pushing the buttom I don't know what too look at next? |

I'm guessing you tried a fresh battery first, installed in the proper direction and cleaned the contact points before assuming the shutter needed fixing. Also, on these, the on/off switch goes bad or needs cleaning. That would make it act like you say.
You say the shutter is closed. Does that mean the mirror is up? Does the advance wind or is it jammed? |
