I think Peter has not seen the opaque illumination window in front of the
prism housing. If this is made dark (as at night) or by putting a finger across
it during daylight, the display vanishes. Restore the availability of exterior
light and the display is back again. What I find with my OM4T is that the
display does not show until I flick the "memory-clear" lever.
I always turn the electrics off as much as I can when the camera is not in
use, by turning the speed ring to the red "B" zone.
