A little off-topic, sorry. But I have a Nikormat FT3. The meter is intermittent. Fixable?

I see three possible causes here, or a combination of them, on the responsible potentiometer:
  1. contamination that creates faulty contact,
  2. worn wipers,
  3. worn contact track.
You would have to look into it.

Wondering if anyone here can provide some me some guidance. I have a dp 11 that has a freezing meter coupling lever. It can be moved out but will not spring back in without help. (Either pushing it back or with the shutter dial). I have separated the front face and the housing to clean the plates between the lever and it now springs back freely, but when attaching it back onto the housing it gets stuck again. I am a first timer with this. I am just working with a few photos and some YT trying to figure out how this mechanism works so if anyone has any guides or advice it would be much appreciated. Thanks
