hi ,

I have an FX3 2000 super. The meter is supposed to be activated when pressing the shutter halfway down, mine seems to be dead.

I checked the batteries in a different FX3 I have lying around (which has a light leak) -> batteries are fine.

My guess is the contacts need cleaning so I might take the camera apart. But I can't find a service manual for this type (not free a least). I can find the regular instructions manual but this doesn't say how to disassemble it.

Does anybody have some advice?

Thanks,

Staf
 
Try getting some contact cleaner (like Deoxit) and wiping down the spring and the threads-
Also, try swapping the battery holder
