Did you replace the batteries with the lens out?

Ok so about half the comments on here describe almost exactly the same problem I had (film only coming out half and then getting stuck / not coming out at all, all the orange lights blinking, little red light staying on, no whizzy noise when I turned it on, pressing the button not making a click etc ). Couldn't find answers to the problem anywhere on the internet other than the fact that people were clearly having the same issue, but eventually got out my paper instruction booklet that I luckily kept and it said to change the batteries with the lens OUT, which was not what I had been doing at all. As soon as I did it properly it came miraculously back to life; I haven't had any problems since. Hope this helps :))

i had all those exact problems and changing the batteries fixed it, although it took me a while to realise that you have to change them with the lens out.

Shows how many films you have left

Replacing the batteries (with the lens out) should help :)

Had that happening too, but I found that if the pictures were taken with less distance between the thing/people and the camera then there was more stuff for the flash to reflect off and so it was brighter. Long or even medium distances always came out almost completely black if the lighting was bad, also sometimes the film was just bad.

Replace the batteries , that worked for me - except you have to do it with the lense out. Tried for ages and was about to give up when as a last attempt I dug out my paper instructions that came with it and it said in there to push the lens out first, then replace the batteries with it still out . Hope it works for you as well :)
