Hi,
on my 35cc one of the white wires that lead from the battery department to a kind of switch in the lens barrel is gone. The battery contact metal thing was very corroded as well.
Now my problem is that I can't see a way to get a new wire through the lens barrel, because this hole the wiring goes through is very tight and kinked. Looks like I'll have to take the shutter/lens assembly apart... has anyone done this? any advice? or other ideas?
Any reply is highly appreciated.
Johannes

Johannes: Can you send me a picture or two of the problem area? I have repaired hundreds of Electros so if I can get a better idea of what you have, I will help. Send to flcamerarepair@aol.com please. I have many Electros for parts too.
