[OM] Cable release fault OM4

In 1986 I bought an OM4 new, SN is 1080985. I still have the original
receipt.

 

It was a few years after purchase that I found that the cable release
will not fire the shutter. No amount of reasonable pressure will trip
the shutter. I now assume the camera had this fault from new, I just
never realised it until I came to use this function. However, it does
not bother me, I rarely use a cable release and the self timer is an
adequate substitute in some situations.

 

I am intrigued, is this a fault other OM4 owners have seen?
