Cleaning contacts

I've had the same with my XF23mm F2. I've found someone on reddit with an XF90mm F2 with the exact same issue as yours. My 90 is fine and I haven't heard much about this either with this particular lens.

I went to a small repair shop and they fixed my XF23mm F2 for 30 bucks or so, they only had to do a cleanup of the contacts.

Otherwise it's best to have it fixed with Fuji directly but I would guess it'd cost more and they'd possibly replace parts too.

My XF23mm F2 has been working just fine for the last two years since the cleanup.

So just the contacts externally?

Or opened the lens?

In case it was cleaned just externally, it is worth a DIY attempt for the OP, isn't it?

Cheers,

Martin
