Depending on the battery holder, you can use AA, AAA, lithium. If you have lithium battery holder, buy AAA battery holder or AA battery holder from eBay.
it might be the internal battery. remove the battery holder and remove the screws on the metal plate. gently lift the plate and replace the battery. remember the different length of the screws.

HFMagna,
there are no new parts available for the 7000, but if you go to a camera repair shop they may sell you a used one, or offer to install it for you at a reasonable price.
The lithium button cell is under the metal plate where the battery holder attaches. There are six screws holding the plate to the camera. I believe the cell is a CR-2025.
That being said, replacing the lithium battery will only restore the cameras ability to remember your settings and frame counter when the regular batteries are not on the camera. It will not restore functions of the camera.
If the camera is not functioning properly, you have a power problem with the main batteries, not the memory backup cell
Dear Minolta friends,
I have recently bought a second hand Maxxum 7000 and a AF lens, but found the body not ocntrolling the aperture while shooting. I know 7000 has someting special. Is my problem is due to lens and body compatibility or actually the malfunction of the body. I am sure the AF lens is ok since i have tried it working with another minolta af body.
Can give me an advice?
