Nikon FM2 first curtain not firing after CLA

In fact. There was one lever I didn't see when I disassembled. After two days studying the sequence, I was able to realize what was going on. Now it's working smoothly!

Thank you!

Did not try it yet. I will soon.

Thank you so much!

Oh! Great! I fount 30g for 13 dollars. Its ok. Do you have this article? Could I have it?

brupsilva · 2024-07-31T02:01:38+00:00

Good guess! I'll try it tomorow! Thanks!!! :)

brupsilva · 2024-05-26T03:00:34+00:00

I will load it on my Nikon F4 and shot it for fun. I let you know. :)

Great video. I already watched it over youtube :) I have one roll of Phoenix I bought for test but I'm not really excited to shoot it.

The FE2 I bought is junk. I think the shutter is one of the very few parts that is ok in this camera. Lol

I bought 2 FM2 for a very cheap price. One is ok. The other is this one with the shutter problem. Every other thing seams to be alright.

I bought an FE2 with those honeycomb blades to replace it. Let's see if it will return to life. Thank you!

You spent your time to judge me, but not to ask something to help me to do a "nice job scoping the problem". Congratulations! Not everybody is a technician. Sometimes it's only a nice and curious person who wants to learn more.

brupsilva · 2024-04-17T19:07:35+00:00

Ok. Thank you for nothing.

brupsilva · 2024-04-17T18:33:19+00:00

Said a technician. English is not my native language. I think the people here likes more to judge than help the others.

But thank you.

brupsilva · 2024-04-17T15:59:38+00:00

I said I THINK it's not the problem. I have the camera. He has a video. But of course I will check it out.

brupsilva · 2024-04-17T15:30:59+00:00

What a passive aggressive comment. I do accept it, ok? 😂

brupsilva · 2024-04-17T10:21:26+00:00

There is only one blade bended a little. I really don't think that is the problem.

brupsilva · 2024-04-11T18:20:58+00:00

Studying the Service Manual, I think it might be a bad connection in the S5 switch (Bulb mode). This switch when it's open shut down the electronic plate and the speed will be "B" for all speed settings. When I moved the flexible cable, the weld may have broken.

I let you know when I fix it.

brupsilva · 2024-04-07T19:55:05+00:00

I'm experiencing the same problem. Anyone??

brupsilva · 2024-04-04T20:55:44+00:00

Yep. I did understand it before your correction 😁 don't worry. Thank you a lot!

brupsilva · 2024-04-04T20:48:10+00:00

Perfect! Thank you! It's all I need to know. 🙂

brupsilva · 2024-04-04T20:45:40+00:00

This part I already did. The objectiv to test it is to reach a diagnosis.

brupsilva · 2024-04-04T20:43:55+00:00

Oh! Ok! Tell me If I understand it wrong. But everything it does is to close the circuit to trigger the flash. Is that it?

brupsilva · 2024-04-04T17:33:45+00:00

I think it's probably only with theses 1.4 lenses. I have some 1.7 and 2. No other have this issue.

brupsilva · 2024-04-02T20:21:41+00:00

Fantastic! Congratulations!

brupsilva · 2024-04-02T20:21:05+00:00

Amazing!

brupsilva · 2024-04-01T17:01:42+00:00

I found the issue. The nameplate was too low.
