This is pretty obvious stuff, but did you try changing the battery with a
FRESH battery ?  One that you know is up to snuff?  One that has no gunk on
the terminals?  ( Take a pencil with an eraser and use the eraser end to
GENTLY freshen up the contacts inside the M6).

Is the battery in properly?   ( wrong polarity?)

After that, it is off to the shop.......!

The right triangle stays lit regardless
of the shutter speed and f-stop combination. Both triangles blink when I cap
the lens.
