Hi all,
Just bought a Fujica AX-5 SLR that is electrically nonworking. A newly installed battery gets very hot after a minute or two... so I'm guessing some kind of electrical short?
Any ideas what I might look for? Only paid a few bucks for it... so no big loss if there's no hope.
I frequently repair electronics, but have never dug into a SLR before. I'm ready to take on the challenge if possible.
Thanks!

Could be a loose connection, with the other end touching the frame of the body causing the discharge. Might have corroded off, so possibly a battery wire replacement is due.
