Bronica ETR lens stuck & shutter won’t release

Im new to this form because I found a similar post but didn’t find a solution to it.

I just got this camera today and was dry firing it perfectly. I could punch myself for the next mistake I made, it’s so stupid.

I took the lens off, obviously both the body and lens were cocked. While the lens was off I released the “shutter” in the body and recocked it. Then I went to mount the lens again and it was having a hard time fully seating to the mount. I pressed the shutter button (without thinking like the idiot I am) and the lens seated and twisted onto the body. Then I winded the grip once smoothly, then went for the second wind and it stuck maybe 1/4 of the way.

Oddly enough I can see through the prism finder just fine, but I can’t get the shutter to release or the lens to release. The shutter and lens release button can be depressed fully but nothing happens. The lens won’t even budge.

Is there any way I can fix this? Yes I put a fresh battery in it today, everything was dry firing perfectly. Any help is GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks!

I took some internal pics for reference of where pins are at. They look....correct (??) to my eyes.

I sold my Etr years ago , so this may not help , but if there's a double exposure lever in front of the winding crank , have you
tried pulling it up and seeing if that allows winding ? Peter

Yes, that would not work either.

I have fixed it!

In retrospect what actually happened is I took the lens off, fired the shutter, winded the grip ONCE not twice so the body was not fully cocked.
I had to take a 90* pick and reach inside the mount and depress each pin from the body to release the pins on the lens mount, then the lens was able to twist free.

Sure enough, like 1/8th of a turn of the winder and the body cocked 100% and fired. Remounted the lens to a fully cocked body and no issues now.

Yahoo . Sounds like a delicate operation ! Peter
