The expose counter does not reset from exposed"10" to "S" when I open the 6x7 back. That's why I can't make photoes withous using the multi-expose mode(. What shoud I do?

I have solved the problem. At the upper part of the main part of the back there is a metal button, that is pulled by the cover of the back, when you close it. This button does not return, when i open the cover of the back. I returned it myself, by a needle.

Most likely is a decaying light seal which gummed up the reset tab. But I've also seen hair or threads entangled in the counter cogs.

Well, then it IS a gummed up reset tab. You should replace the light seal, or the problem will return - and you may suffer light leaks as well.
