Help diagnosing R9 spot meter problem

Shooting my 3rd roll today with the R9. I switched to manual, spot meter mode, and the "lo" display came on regardless of the actual shutter speed or aperture. The center weight and matrix metering work correctly, but the spot meter always displays as insufficient light.

 

I tried with new batteries as well as a fully charged motor drive. Same problem.

 

Advice?

Sounds like the meter mechanism is kaput. Just had mine replaced at Leica. It started out with only the spot-metering behaving weird, then the other metering methods as well.

 

It was a 500 € experience to get this fixed, as well as the camera checked, adjusted and all in the same process.
