If anyone can help, I would greatly appreciate it.

I recently picked up a Minolta Autocord M (that version as far as I'm aware). I'm having an issue with the counter. Everytime I get to the fourth photo, the counter rewinds (I can hear it) and goes back to the triangle and then back to 1, after I'm forced to wind it.

Anyone know what the issue is?

Thanks.

It's broken. Possibly broken teeth on the measuring mechanism?

Contact Karl Bryan- karl.kathy[at]frontier.com See what he says.

I second this. Karl overhauled my Autocord a couple of years ago and did an outstanding job.

I recommend Karly Bryan as well. He's is great for Autocords. Even shipping from Ireland is worth it.
