[Leica] Frame counter won't reset

[vick.ko at sympatico.ca (Vick Ko)]

That is precisely the problem I had at the time with my almost new M6
non-TTL.

I do not know precisely how to fix it.  There is a lever that is
released when you remove the bottom plate of the camera.  Upon releasing
that lever, the spring-loaded return mechanism for the counter should
engage and release.  I found that if I wound and released the mechanism,
it would return more and more, but after all these years, the return
still doesn't go back to -2 pictures.

You would need to get into the mechanism of the camera and remove the
top cover, which with a brand new camera, I would strongly urge you do
not do yourself.

I am sure the staff at Leica would be more than happy to repair/adjust
this for you.

regards
Vick

I've encountered a problem with my brand-new MP--after the third roll I
took with it, the frame counter refused to reset. Has anyone seen a
problem like this before? Is it something I can fix myself, or something
I'm doing wrong?
