Nikon L35 (One Touch) help!

[Oliver_P]

Hi. I've been searching the internet for a solution to my particular problem but cannot seem to find anyone with the exact same issue. I have had an successfully used a Nikon L35 (OneTouch) for the last year. However, after I finished my last roll of film, during which the camera worked perfectly, the usual process occurred. That is, the shutter became stiff and ceased to allow me to depress it, and I rewound the film. However, when I loaded up new film the camera did not advance to the 1st frame. Nor did it allow me to press the shutter, it was still stiff and stuck. It seems as if the camera is no longer recognising film being loaded, and hence is not advancing or allowing the shutter to be pressed. I have changed the batteries, cleaned the contacts and used several different film cartridges.

Any help or advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks very much.
