My Kiev 60 has one of the modern 15 second TTL metered prisms. Turning the aperture dial has no effect of the meter's reading. I can remove the shutter speed knob without a problem but I do not know how to proceed from there to get to the aperture dial mechanism. Any pointers?

OK, I'm an idiot - the aperture dial on the meter is not suposed to have any effect on the meter reading - only the aperture of the lens does which makes sense when I actually think about it.
