Many thanks for your advice! It fixed "dark pictures problem" on my K-500. It may be helpful for someone who faced with it. I found a CD driver solenoid of which properly suitable for my camera. It costs about 8$ and you can find it on ebay for example. Unlike original parts, it's blue, but has the same (not reverse) holes. Its magnetic core is much stronger than original (maybe coil too). When I had tried to take back Pentax's solenoid to CD it refused to keep a latch closed.

CD driver model: GSA-T10N

Original solenoid(sorry for bad quality):


Replacement:
