I have an OM 20. Everything works on it other than the LEDs on the lhs of the viewfinder.Is there an easy fix for this problem? Peter.

Try turning the mode dial a good # of times. Other possibilities; loose grd. screw on wind side(under the top cover), & a faulty IC

Don,thanks.I tried turning the dial but no joy so I took the top cover off(using Rick Oleson`s sketch,thanks to him also)but couldn`t find anything loose but I don`t know what colour the wire that is being grounded is so may have missed it.Any ideas? Peter

I can send a schematic if that will help.

Thanks, that would be very helpful.It seems a shame not to try and repair the camera.
