I just bought a Minolta XG SE and ran into this problem. I'm not able to get the batteries right now. So I tried with the power winder that came with it and it uses simple AAs and it still didn't work. I hope it's just a simple problem of me not having the right batteries. It's will kept and mint
Less than 1/4 of the time will it be the batteries, 99.9 percent of the time it will be bad capacitors so don't waste your time checking the batteries.
Hey, I have a Minolta X-GM the light meter still works, however the advance lever is stuck and the shutter button does nothing. Do you think it's the Capacitor?
Hi i keep on changing the batteries but it doesn’t seem to work, i checked and there’s light but the film winder won’t budge a inch, could you help me ?
No sound!
Usually the batteries solve the problem, if that doesn't there should be a capacitor inside most minolta cameras that can go bad.

maybe gear inside broken, it needs ti be opened to check.
Elchin Jabbarov okay! thank you!
You have to open it and spin the thing and it will click then the camera makes a sound and it works
@@austinbarnes4759 how many times does it click till the camera starts to work again?
@@nae_naegidid u ever find out an answer lol
what if the shutter is too loose? im using minolta xg m too
what you mean with too loose? it works and dances? maybe one or two tooth in wheel inside broken.
Replace capacitors, they are leaky in all Minolta XG series before they destroy the pcb's.
Depleted batteries are a "problem" now? They run out, you change them, no problem.
for you not problem, for someone problem.
Are you HARRY POTTER friend ==???? Please dont waste
