Hi

I disassembled the mount of an OM-4 which I got used and damaged, because the ring where the string is attached was not moving very freely, and I have obliously reassembled
it the wrong way. The shutter speeds are clearly off and there's no way to get 'B'. The camera fires at all speed settings even without batteries in!
Could anyone guide me on how to do it right?
Camera electronics seem to be working fine.

regards
Michael Frangos

Thanks to advice from John Hermanson I have fixed the problem.
