Subject: [Leica] LED Display

After reading a recent post about storing the camera, I went and checked
my M6.  I had not used for about a month and sure enough, the meter was
on...

As I went to shoot a picture, I noticed the LED display disappeared. 
Thinking the maybe the battery was dead, I purchased a new battery and
put it in the camera.  When I turned it on to shoot, the LED did not
appear.  I read the manual, checked and cleaned the contacts and placed
the battery in again...Still no LED

Is there anything else I might try before...GULP...sending the body back
to New Jersey for a look-see and repair?...The camera is still under
warranty, however, I was hoping to take it with me on a vacation in the
Sierras early next month?

Thanks,


Joe Hayes


PS...sorry if this shows up twice...I wasn't sure if I mailed to the
right address the first time....JEH
