Hello friends.

I've got Canon F-1N. The shutter does not fire and film won't advance.
I don't know if the shutter is cocked, but shutter release button does nothing.

I removed the bottom cover, all looks fine.
What could be the problem and how could I solve it?

I'll be very thankfull for any advice.:)

This camera has hybrid shutter that works without battery on 1/90-1/2000.

I think the shutter is jammed.
How could I release it?
Where could I download the repair manual?

Also the electronic circuit is dead. I checked the electric path of battery, all is fine
but the meter needle in the AE finder does not move when I press battery check.

I removed top cover, bottom plate and battery holder.
Could anyone tell me please a strategy how to solve this problem.

I'll very appreciate any answer.
Thank you.
