david chau Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 this might be the same problem as me, as described in this thread: http://www.photo.net/bboard/q-and-a-fetch-msg?msg_id=00CADG i think its a capacitor problem, cost me $60 AUD to fix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricardovaste Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 When that happens it does usually mean its a capacitor problem. i had it happen with an x-700. when it happend with a 505si someone (not me!!) pulled the mirror back down and it broke, so dont do that! Sometimes just taking the batteries out and putting fresh one in can fix it, not sure why - worth a try though. hope you sort our the problem.

sam_marsh1 Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Hi Brian, <p> There's a service manual for this over at the Free Minolta Manuals site with a good trouble-shooting section: <a href=http://www.geocities.com/eskoufos/fmm.html>http://www.geocities.com/eskoufos/fmm.html</a></p> <p> It's quite big so you'd need a fast internet connection. If you haven't got one let me know and I'll post you a CD with it on. Thanks, Sam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
