Film should advance normally with motor drive as that bypasses the top
part of the wind mechanism. I really don't like the wind mech in the 2S,
3, 4. Instead of a gear / pawl setup like OM-1/2 (which has it's own
problems), they employed a sliding clutch that rides inside inside a
gear. Hard to rebuild, all parts not available. Usually requires
replacement of entire top wind assembly.
