samantha_smith1 Posted June 21, 2003 Share Posted June 21, 2003 Hello, We have a Minolta Maxxum 9xi. When ever we power it up the LCD display will flash <B>"HELP"</B> <P> After doing many searches on google and going through the manual the only insight we have found with the problem is it may be a <I>defective aperture control unit.</i> <P> If anyone has a solution to this issue or can send us in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated.

fmueller Posted June 22, 2003 Share Posted June 22, 2003 This group is still fairly new and small. You might have better luck getting an answer to such a specialised question if you post in the Minolta Yahoo group: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Minolta/ With over 3600 members, there should be a few 9xi users there! Best of luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael_hohner Posted June 23, 2003 Share Posted June 23, 2003 Remove the batteries for a few minutes, then try again. If the problem persists, bring your camera to a repair shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rod_buron Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 Try switching off, remove battery AND lens and wait for a few minutes. If no luck try doing same and then putting on different lens. Rod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomas_fabian Posted July 11, 2003 Share Posted July 11, 2003 I had the same problem......It's something like an automatic switch off in case there's a button being held down constantly, all I did to fix it was to take out the batteries and switch the power to on to let all the power cycle out of the camera for a few minutes.
