i've a problem with the electrics on said ME.i've double checked all soldered joints.
the repair manual states that for the fault i have, the overexposure led remains on constantly, the yellow wire is at fault somewhere along it's route.
the camera was in a bit of a state when i purchased it.some of the flex circuit had been erroded away,looks as thoughit's been swimming a few times.
i've repaired all bad connections,i now have electrics,but, and its a big one,nothing changes the meters readout.is it possible, that if it was soaked,it could corrode inside one of the components.when i first got the meter switched on,the "overexposure" and "500" led's came on together.after cleaning up the circuit board a little more, only the "over" lit up.any help would be gratefully appreciated. thank you ade
