Hi all,
after successfully disassembling and cleaning my olympus 35rd I have a problem where the door springs belongs to. See attached photo.
Any help appreciated.
Cheers

I have an overhaul manual for a 35DC, an almost identical camera, but the illustrations are not too clear as to where that spring is attached. It looks like one end is attached to the little coverplate that goes over the latch and the other end to the latch. And of course it should pull the latch up. The text makes no mention of the latch.

The Olympus 35ED, and Trip 35 seem to have similar setups with one end of the spring attached to the latch and the other end to the latch cover plate.
