SOURCE: Stuck in Rewind Mode
Camera is not resetting itself : remove small side pannel by the end that houses back door locking mechanism ( looking from the back it is on the left side ). you will see small slide switch that maybe dislodged . Clean and assamble correctly.
SOURCE: auto rewind going crazy
clean the contact terminals inside the film compartment. Your camera has an abnormal autorewind switch detection.
SOURCE: Film advancement
Transport mechanism problem; the drag on the film as it is being pulled by the transport motor triggers the rewind mechanism and your camera rewinds the film. Remedy : remove bottom cover and clean loose dirt and anything foreign out of the visible gear-train. Assemble and try again.
SOURCE: Camera keeps rewinding film
Check the manual rewind button on the bottom plate of the camera. Make sure the button is not jammed under the edge of the button opening. If it is you might be able to carefully pry it out with a sharp pin or tooth pick (be careful not to pierce the button or you could damage the circuit board underneath) Or you could remove the bottom plate and reseat the button (be careful of a loose spring to the film door latch)
