Canon FG troubleshooting

Hay

Found this nice little gem on the fleamarket. Everything seems to work nicely except for the part that after I take a few shots the film advance lever gets stuck. I can always unstuck it by putting the camera on M90 but it's far from ideal.
Anyone know what could cause it?

And ofcourse I ment Nikon FG camera

You do have batteries in it don't you?

I think the FG fires on M90 until you get to frame 1 no matter what 'mode' you have selected so perhaps it's working on M90 but not on battery power?

Made the same mistake on mine. The batteries just seem to go in better upside down for some reason :]
