stevdan,

take the screws off the bottom cover. there is a small lever pointing toward the front of camera with a black screw on it. gently move it to the left, this will release the lock lever. Now advance the lever and the shutter should fire. if not, it is not repairable. no parts

SOURCE: shutter remains open

it is out of batteries.if you notice the meter doesnt work when the lever is put in the on position.M90 was designed so you can still shoot in case you run out of batteries.

Why can't I see through the viewfinder?

sounds like the shutter could be stuck, give it a sharp knock(not too hard) on a counter top, as you work the on off button/switch
all I could find on this , is the manual

Was given a ricoh 35mm xr-2s camera without instructions, how do i find instructions for this camera? I can't get it open to put film in it or find where the batteries go.

You can find an on-line manual for this camera - just google Ricoh XR-2s manual. This will give you all the info you need.

Blank film

Make sure when you load your film, that the cogs are actually winding the film. Many a roll has been "shot" with the film ever advancing. If you see what your taking, that is really about all that it could be.

Mirror is stuck in "up" position and film will not advance

Normally, stuck mirror is due to weak batteries with a elcetromagnetic shutter like the Ricoh. Try with brand new silver oxides and see if it helps!

Shutter Release button

Did you try changing the aperture? Depending on the lighting in the area, you may want to change this accordingly, if you put it in AUTO, and you're in a dark room the shutter might not open immediately.

XR 7 locked up

Just read on another forum where the film rewind button can get stuck (little button on the bottom of the camera, used to initiate rewind), and removing the camera bottom allows access to unjam it.  I'll try... takes a small philips eyeglass screwdriver and young eyes (or my reading glasses...)
