Canon New F1 service Place

Hello everybody!

 

I recently got a New F1 really cheap. It is in excellent condition with only some brassing around the strap-swivel and the bottom plate.

Only issue is: The camera did not fire with a battery inside. Even with the one from my other F1, which would happily fire with it.

With a brand new battery it did fire, but then after one minute nothing again, and I noticed that the battery inside got really warm. I'm thinking some bad switch or connection inside, however, I am rather confident that this can be fixed by a professional ( I will not attempt to open a New F1 for a second time, tried that once ^^)

 

So can anybody suggest a good place for servicing in Germany or Austria?
