Otherwise email Eric or the guys at Harrow in the UK and see if they know. I sent my Super A & A50/1.7 to Eric last month for a CLA and they should be back soon. The Super A was working fine in the program modes, but had some "stuff" in the viewfinder. (bits of old mirror bumper). The A50/1.7 had a stiff aperture ring.
Hope this works out, as the Super A is a nice little camera. I'm also testing out a P50, but that's not quite as nice.

With a K or M lens it behaves like with the A in manual aperture: on the display I see two numbers, aperture and shutter speed, like it's in program mode.
I think the KA mount is gone because without lens the camera works normally, I don't think that the camera is worth repairing, on ebay there are many around and all relatively cheap, the seller offered to take it back but on the other the motordrive an data back are in working condition and difficult to procure, so I would like to understand if there is some magic solution to the problem or I'll ask a partial refund and get a working one.
P.S. The Super A looks like a nice camera, not Fujica AX-5 nice but better than the A-1.
P.P.S The A50mm f1.7 building quality is embarassing in comparison to a K55mm, a Takumar or even the A50/1.4
