Thread: Problem with Leica Range Finder

I have a Leica Rangemaster 1000-R that I purchased in Oct 2013. It has only had light use.

It has developed a fault so that when I turn it on the screen display locks on 8.8.8.8. and nothing I do will shift it.
I put a new battery in but no change in result.

I have tried Googling but have not found any answers to the problem.

Has anybody got any suggestions or similar experiences before I package it up and send it to Lacklands for repairs.

Send it for repairs.

Lacklands (the wholesalers) are very good, they usually look after this sort of thing well - so Dogmatix is right, send it in

Just to update on the original post.
I sent the Range Finder to Lacklands who organised repairs and set it back to me free of charge.
So I appreciate their support and I also wish to acknowledge the support I recieved from Richard Wilhelm who I originally purchased it from.
And thanks to the heads up from the guys above.
