The shutter button is stuck and the advance lever isn't working.
It actually was fixed this issue when a small lever (the pointed part in the attached pic) inside of the top cover was moved with the lever.
But it happened again.
Do you know if there is any way permanently to fix this issue?

Just a random thought. My Minolta CLE had these symptoms a few months ago. I took it to a couple of places and finally all it was was the shutter curtain hadn't gone back to its proper resting position for some reason. The fix was simply to push it gently back to its proper position (remove lens and grab it gently with a finger on both sides to do this) and the problem hasn't recurred.

Thank you olifaunt. I just tried as you mentioned. Unfortunately, it didn't work for mine.

Try this: put it up side down, little knock with your hand, and in that position try advance the lever. Hope it works. Somewhere I read this trick and worked for me..
