The mode dial is part of a larger assembly. Here's instructions on replacement of a similar S30. Don't recommend that you try this unless you have some familiarity with electronics, and a lot of patience. Above all keep track of all your screws as they're all different sizes:

My Canon AV1 only shoots in B mode, the light meter works correctly, and everything else seems fine. Has anyone had the same issue and found a solution?

If your Canon AV-1 is only shooting in Bulb (B) mode, it could be due to a malfunctioning shutter or aperture control. However, since the light meter is working correctly, it is possible that the issue is with the camera's shutter speed dial. The shutter speed dial is located on the top of the camera and should be set to a specific speed when shooting in aperture-priority mode. If the dial is stuck in the Bulb (B) position, then the camera will only shoot in bulb mode.

I would recommend taking your camera to a professional camera repair shop to have it inspected and repaired if necessary.

How to get the Leica D-Lux 3 OUT of the Continuous Mode? The answer is NOT in the Instruction Manual. Thanks.

To exit the continuous mode on your Leica D-Lux 3 camera, you can follow these steps:
  1. Turn on your camera and select the shooting mode by rotating the mode dial to the appropriate setting (e.g. P, A, S, M)
  2. Press the menu button and navigate to the "Drive" or "Continuous" setting.
  3. Select "Single" or "Single Shot" mode to exit the continuous mode.
  4. Press the menu button again to exit the menu and return to the shooting screen.
Alternatively, some cameras have a dedicated button or switch to switch between single and continuous mode, in that case you can use that button/switch to switch modes.
It's also important to check the manual of your specific camera model, as the steps may vary depending on the camera firmware version and the model itself.

I just purchased a SystemPro Wireless Remote Shutter release for my Nikon D200 camera. How do I set the menu program so the camera and the remote "talk" to one another? Thanks for your help

You need to set the camera's shooting mode to one of the remote modes. Quick-response remote mode fires the shutter when you press the button on the remote. Delayed remote mode gives you two seconds to hide the remote behind your back before firing the shutter.

To choose a shooting mode, press the mode dial lock release and turn the mode dial to the desired setting.
