Hello all.
my YASHICA GSN ELECTRO 35 has a problem .

Shutter fires while the wind lever is twisted and when it come back to position on it half way with out pressing shutter trigger.
I searched but there was no solution. Here I will attach an You Tube video (1:05sec) which explains my problem(this video is not mine and not uploaded by me, I found while goggled for this problem).

HERE IS THE YOU TUBE LINK

Hope someone can help me on this
regards
Jibin
 
These have electronic shutters, I wonder if this might involve a dirty magnet failing to hold the shutter back until the release switch is closed. I'm kind of a mechanical-only person, so that guess is about as far as I can go.
 
The audio in the youtube clip was somewhat poor. When the shutter is cocked there's
quite a train of events going on,but the first thing I listen for on a GSN is for the
sound of the pod (a thunk) shortly after you've started winding the film forward. It can be the cause of many problems. If you search for" POD" you should find many references to it and possible repairs. Peter
