Hello Derek,
I had to shorten your subject title - long subject titles can damage the message board.

I can think of no electro-mechanical explanation for why the same frames on subsequent rolls of film are not being exposed. I'm referring your question to an expert, Dave Marsh, owner of Apex Photo-Technical Services in Amherst, New Hampshire. Dave is the past president of NAPET which is the international trade organization for camera repair technicians.
