Subject: Re: [OM] OM 4Ti Display problem
Might be
1) old batteries
2) wrong batteries. SR 44/357 I believe works nice and even
3) loose bottomplate screws. Tighten with a small screwdriver. (John
H tipped me off about this, and it worked for me)
4) faulty circuits. NOT good.
I'm sure you'll get tons of more accurate advice from the others on
the list, but these are the things I would try first. (Not the
circuits, mind you...)
