Gossen Profisix Manual
Sorry I couldn't find an appropriate 'lightmeters' section so posting my question here. Hopefully someone out there could help me. My Gossen Profisix (same as Luna-Pro SBC for the US market) has been working reliably for years.
The Gossen Profisix is a system exposure meter which. Manual: 10 different adapters are available--Battery 9V IEC 6 F22 or IEC 6 LF22 Download. Gossen Profisix Original Instruction Manual.

My favorite meter. Recently I bought a Profi-spot (Multibeam) attachment for it, and it worked too. Drivers Winfast A340 more. But after this the meter doesn't work on its own (without the attachment). It shows the same exposure (1/4 s at f/2.8 for ISO 100) whatever the light. Sunlight, dark room -- the same. With the spot attachment on, it works again and is accurate. Since the spot attachment is connected to the basic meter via several electric jacks (for purposes of automatic compensation, no need to manually set correction on the dial), I suspected a contact deep there in the socket that could remain depressed after the attachment is removed.
To get there, I'd have to take the meter apart, but couldn't figure out how to do this. I don't want to force things, so tried to be delicate in my attempts. There's no Gossen authorized service center locally (St. Indian Patriotic Songs In English. Petersburg, Russia), so I'm looking for an advice.
If someone doesn't have a solution to the problem but knows how to safely take the meter housing apart, please respond. Thanks in advance everyone who have taken their time to read.

Next I 'd look if there might be other screws under this table. Guessed probabbility 30% 'yes'. Windows Xp Backup Full Version Setup here. The rest seems like levering the 2 halfs of the housing (which probably have snap in hooks) apart with knives, screwdrivers, similar. Before I'd start doing so I 'd get something to glue the housing together after the fix, because I'm fearing up to 20% of the original hooks might break off during my attempt to open the meter. - You'll need some glue anyhow for the Lux table, if you take it off to be on the safe side. Watch out for these parts of the upper half in the battery compartment.
