Try using other settings when using the flash for example "Auto" (the green rectangle). Also try pressing the flash release button on the left side of your camera. Hope this helps.

I have a canon EOS400d and there's an error 5 message that appears when i manually activate the flash by pressing the button on the left side. I have checked online and many people were able to solve their problem by making sure the micro switch in the hotshoe is NOT depressed. The micro switch in my hotshoe is not depressed. I tried to "persuade" the flash by simultaneously pressing the button on the left side and used my thumb and forefinger to force the flash open and it works. When i forced open the flash though, it does not seem to move freely, maybe it needs lubrication?

My wife has a Canon Rebel Xt. She was taking pics...It suddenly stopped working and could not turn camera on...We replaced the battery...No improvement. I've read that its probably a fuse on the motherboard...Any ideas? Thx
