Minolta EP 1083 - AE adjust after new drum

[tabstogo]

I am helping my mom's office with their old (but hardy!) EP 1083. I replaced the drum and according to some info I found online it said I should run the AE adjustment from service mode.

Here is the procedure from the manual:

Whenever the PC Drum has been replaced, be sure tomake the "Adjustments of the Optimum Exposure Settingin the Manual and Auto Mode." See pp. D-51 to D-52

<Setting Procedure>1. Enter the number assigned to the desired test from the 10-Keys. (The number appears on the Multi-Copy Display.)2. Press the Start key to start the test.3. Press the Stop key to stop the test

I went into service mode. Stop 0, Stop 1. Pressed the 5 key as the setting called for "F5" but in the display it shows "6" even though I did press 5...

Not sure what I am doing wrong/right. Anyone with some insight?

thanks!

Yes, I did change the blade, cleaned the coronas (blew them out with air and then used a bit of alcohol on the mesh area.

The drum was ruined by a label that came off and adhered to the drum and caused all sorts of problems.
