Rollei PQ lens aperture stuck at F50

Got a 250mm pq lens, on my hy6 mod2. The lens aperture is stuck at f50 no matter what I do with the camera. All other lenses are fine. Is there anyway to reset the aperture or is the lens broken?
 
It sounds like the lens aperture potentiometer is gone. Is this in A mode or using the aperture ring or both? It can affect it differently. The only way to fix this is to send it for service...

I would definitely contact support to get the lens in. As Marko said, it seems that the potentiometer (or lens controller, as Phase and Hasselblad refer to it) is shot, and as that's an internal part, you'd want to get that in for repair.
