Few days ago, I brought a Pentax ME F, and new batteries as well. When I installed new batteries, and press shutter relese button half way, LED won't turn on. After half hour of clicking and pressing all buttons :D , LEDs finally turned on, but when I turned on AF, LEDs mysteriously turned off. After that, LEDs won't turn on again for few minutes with AF switch turned off, then suddenly LEDs turn on again. Camera was fully operational, all modes worked fine, except auto focus...
Camera worked that way for a few hours and went dead. Ever sice that, camera won't turn on again.

Does anyone know what could be a problem with the camera, and is there a solution?

Thank you very much! :-)
