Apparently it isn't a difficult repair. The problem is finding a solenoid that won't fail. Apparently Pentax changed suppliers and the new units are failure prone. My understanding is the new ones are one colour, I recall white, and the old ones are green, though I might have it backwards. If I'm not mistaken, even one from as far back as a Super Program will fit.
