Leupold rx 1000 will not show anything even with new battery. what is the problem and have you heard of this problem with these rangefinders
Sorry if this answer comes a little late, But if you still have it (I have one also)i found that if you have the cap too tight it will not work. Back it off 1/8th turn, or little by little untill it comes to life
This problem is caused by the 'step' inside the battery cover which prohibits the tip of the battery from contacting the nipple inside the cover. I fitted a thin piece of aluminium strip (20thou) and the rangefinder works perfectly now. Make sure you dont bridge-out the +ve to the neutral (i.e. battery casing).

AllI can suggest is that maybe the battery terminals inside the rangefinder are slightly oxidized, and may need a good cleaning. Other than that, you could be having an oxidation problem with the contacts of a switch inside the camera, which will be challenging to get to, as you know. A good contact spray that doesn't harm plastics might help, if you can get to the components. Otherwise, you may have to contact Leopold support (I couldn't find a support center on the net, so refer to your manual that came with it).
Wish I had more, but that's allI can think of, but hope it helps.
