The OM10 I am told has TWO exposure meters - one on the front of the camera on the right hand side as you point it, and a second actually behind the mirror internally.

If the one with the light has died you can still use it if you set it to auto rather than manual, when the internal one will do the job for you. Of course if you, unlike me, know enough about photography to want to play with different exposures this is not so helpful...

Ooops... Forgot to mention that I believe there is an OM10 repair manual on the "repair manuals" link, to the left...

As for whether it is a simple task or not I haven't a clue, I just shoved mine on auto and there it's stayed.
