I have a couple of Olympus AFL cameras. Both have dead batteries. When trying to replace them with two CR123 cells, the camera refuses to wind on film but it will rewind the film back into the cassette if I push the rewind lever.
Is there some secret of how to replace the batteries?
I know that they had to be sent to an olypus service center to get the batteries replaced, but no such centers exists today.
