You remove the bottom plate, and lightly clean the contacts, (there's a bar that extends from the camera
top at the shutter release to the bottom of the camera), and adjust the contact positions so that half pressing
the shutter turns the meter on, and it doesn't turn on when the shutter is locked. Piece of cake really...

And the remedy for that?

Wondering if there are any hints as to quirks with the MX.  Picked on
up for my daughter the other day.  She shot about half of one roll
with it last night and the light meter went dead.  I figured the
battery was probably dead and so purchased new ones and put them in
today.  Still seems to be dead.  Any thoughts?  Any tricks like
oxidized contacts, etc?

Thanks,

Bruce
