Hi Patrick,
I don't have a good answer to your problem, but I can
certainly sympathize, as my black KX is doing exactly
the same thing. In my case, I suspect a bad contact in
the main switch around the shutter release.
When I first bought the camera, the meter reading was
consistantly giving a
The batteries are still current S76, 357, etc.
It might be a simple problem of dirt in the switch, sound like it needs
an overhaul anyway. The fact the meter does essentially work is
encouraging because a bad meter IC is about the only thing not fixable
on these old mechanical pentaxes. In
There is enough of a power curve difference between Alkaline and Silver Oxide
batteries that it could be a problem. Try to find some real S76 or
Everready 357 cells see if they make a difference before having the meter
fixed.
