Wanted - Nikon FE2 self timer lever
Hi folks
Looking for a self timer lever for the FE2, mine broke about 5 years ago and looks weird without one Wondering if anyone has a spare one to sell, or could point me in the right direction to where i could obtain one, from a shop etc Thanks Paddy |

Yes thanks
I had a look on ebay and the one you linked is for the FE/FM, the FE2 version is slightly different and im not sure if it would fit or look right I tried Nikon UK and they dont have any, Nikon USA wont ship to the Uk Theres one on ebay from a seller in the states and the price is comical I might try a few repair shops to see if they have a spare one |

Newton & Ellis do Nikon repairs - they made a good job of one of my manual Nikons when the winder fell off and several parts were lost.
They may have the part/s but would probaly want to do the reapir. Maybe worth a try ? Neil.

I thought it would be in that ball-park if they had one. Carry on looking ? Neil.

I seen a youtube video about solving this common fault with the FE2, FM2 type cameras https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ebrQ3ZMkfwI Watched this video, afterwards bought some lithium grease, triflow ptfe oil and a couple of syringes/needles and solved the problem, now it works like it,s just had a service It still had no self timer lever though But it,s up and running now, pity the same cant be said about me |
