tl/dr: Looking for service manual and/or advice on Fujica STX-1N for Shutter Speed and Exposure Indicator adjustment.

Hi.

A while ago I purchased a Fujica STX-1N. I've noticed that it has a light meter issue, where the LEDs always seem to show it as being overexposed.

I've tended to ignore this and use a handheld light meter and got some good results from it.

However, I now think it would be nice to see if this can be repaired or calibrated in some way. I successfully realigned the rangefinder on an Agfa Super Silette, so would quite like to have a go at this.

I have now also noticed a shutter speed indicator in the viewfinder, which appears to be flipped upside down, points to 500 when set on B, (photo attached). Surely this is not normal? I'm guessing someone has been inside already and not put it back together again.

Question is, does anyone have any experience and advice for opening up this camera, or know of a service manual somewhere online?

Cheers.
