M6 Meter Arrow not working


Recommended Posts

Advertisement (gone after registration)

Hello,

 

I have had a M6 for a few months now and not had a problem. Now the left meter arrow will not light up. The right arrow will dissapear when I move the exposure dial or the appature ring however the left one no longer lights up.

 

Any ideas?

 

thanks

This happened on my M6. It was a cold solder joint which according to Don Goldberg (DAG) is somewhat common (he said he sees around 5 a year with this issue.)

 

If the LED diode itself is bad, then the circuit board will need replacing. He says that is very uncommon.

 

The repair for the cold solder joint was a fast turnaround and not expensive. Have any good Leica tech check for you and hopefully it's just a solder joint issue.

 

btw, it was the left side for me, too.
