I've got a very nice 35RC that's completely dead in auto mode, so I suspect it's a broken wire. Now I've also got an ugly 35RC that was working perfectly untill yesterday.... I took the bottom off to investigate the battery compartment and the wire was so corroded that it snapped at first touch. I strongly suspect corrosion is also the underlying cause of the other dead RC, so I think I'll do myself a favour and replace most of the wiring when I'm at it. But then I need to get the top off in order to take the lens off. Any catches I should know about?

I wagely remember something about small parts flying out from the self timer, but that may have been another camera. Also what direction should the self timer and shutter speed wheel unscrew? Clockwise? Widdershins? ;-)

Thanks,
Thomas
