Electro 35 restoration

[ywenz]

I have a Electro 35 that has bad light seals and a dirty shutter contact for the meter. I would like to fix these issues myself. Are there any online resources that can guide me through these kind of procedures?

http://www.kyphoto.com/classics/forum/ has a huge amount on this camera - just do a keyword search.

This page has repair information and is nicely illustrated too.

The lights seem to switch on at random spots along the travel of the shutter release. Sometimes it doesn't switch on at all and I have to squeeze the shutter slowly...
