I've have an older Canon AV1 sitting on my shelf and the meter is still working, but it appears to be 1.5-2 F stops off. I suppose I could still use it by manipulating the ASA dial, but I would rather get into it and try to adjust the meter. Can anyone out there tell me if the meter can be adjusted, and if so, where is the adjustment located. I would assume it's under the top cover, and if it is, how does the shutter speed dial come off?

If the meter is out the light cell is probable at fault.
