sergio_sousa Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Hi there! I am trying to repair one of these nice Minox cameras, I have a new batt, and have checked all connections are clean and dust free. What happens is: the solenoids open and close at same time, so, shutter blades open and close and no light passes by (and no exposure on film). Shutter blades are free, solenoids work well, photometer measures seem correct, but I get no timing delay for the second blade. I also tried with the flash inserted to test the 100 speed, but happens the same problem. Can some experienced expert help me out here? I am a bit lost on where to find this fault... :( Best regards, Sergio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eskoi.pohjanpalo Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Sergio, try the T-set, timing, where the red light should blink. If it works, then the problem is in the shutter contact. Perhaps CLA needed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesevidon Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Send an email to DAG Camera Parts in the U.S. He is a top repair specialist for Leica et. al and he has a lot of Minox 35 experience and parts to boot. I'm sure he'll answer you and may have some knowledgeable suggestions. Featured Products Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
