Rich, I've got a similar concern with a PZ1P. It is intermittent and has been back to Pentax Colorado three times. They have advised that they can find nothing wrong. I've sent them the body after I've removed the film. The condition reappeared last week on a shoot - at about the 13th frame the film wouldn't advance and I couldn't get the film to rewind - the symbol for a rewound roll was blinking. The battery was fine, no blinking symbol to replace. This time I'm sending the body to them with the film in place in the body, hoping it will help them to diagnosis the concern. I'm in the Auto Industry and intermittent concerns are the hardest to diagnosis.
