I've had this camera forever (Yashica FX-3) and it broke some time ago. The lever for the self timer is floppy (doesn't ratchet or anything) and the shutter release button can't be depressed.

Any input on how I can go about fixing this?

I really appreciate it.

Put the shutter speed to B push down the timer and softly slide the shutter to the left it will trip
