I remember hearing the shutter work, but I cannot wind to the next frame. The advance lever is locked in place. I rewound the film and took it out. The shutter will not fire and the advance lever will not move. Batteries show good. They are almost new. Meter, display all work fine. I put the motor winder on and still no shutter or advance. I remember this happening once before, but I think when I put the winder on it advanced and all was well. I tried the self timer, but that didn't work. As I say, I think the shutter is uncocked as I remember the shutter firing. Any ideas of things to try before I pack it up and send it off?
