Mamiya 645 Super mirror locked in open position

Hi,
I have a Mamiya 645 Super with a mirror that locked open whilst taking a picture, and it wont return. The 645 has a switch to actually lock the mirror up but this was not on at the time. Does anyone have any technical know how about fixing this? I would like to give it a go myself.
Thanks and regards
Michael

My mirror somehow got stuck open too, I removed the power winder and grasped the pins in the middle of the silver wheel underneath used to wind the camera. Turn this clockwise until it stops and shutter is completely closed. Test fire camera after. If it doesn't work make sure you wound it all the way.

Make sure you have a resh battery in the camera. The shutter is powered and witha weak battery there may no be enough power to complete the mirror cycle. Also if that camera (i cant remember that on in particular) has an M90 setting turn the shutter dial to the M90 to reset everything.

I just purchased a used back roll film holder for my Mamiya 654 Pro TL, and I cannot pull the dark slide out. This dark slide has a blue handle, where my other back's dark slide has a red handle, and...

It's been a while since I used a mamilla 645, so forgive me if this is wrong, but I seem to remember the dark slide would only come out with the camera wound on, ready to take a picture.

Mamiya 645 ADF viewfinder/meter issues...

You likely have a defective display module, probably with a dead back-light. Try putting a newly charged battery in it, but if the problem persists, you'll need to send it in for service.

Mamiya 645 AF back won't advance film.

The battery in the film back is only used to supply power when the back is off the camera, when it is on the body power is supplied by the six batteries in the body so try them and also make sure the film insert is properly seated.

I have a mamiya 645 pro camera I can't remove the old film spool from the camera ? JoAnn

Squeeze the two handles on either side of the "120" or "220" label on the film holder to pull it out, then the spool is easily removed.
