My XT can't seem to find the correct autofocus point anymore. When I hold the shutter release down halfway, the camera tries to focus, but jumps in and out of focus over and over, until I get the flashing green circle in the lower right corner of the viewfinder (the camera can't figure out the correct focus point), or it decides it has focused correctly, but it's wrong. I can see various different AF point lights flashing in the viewfinder when it does find a focus point. Can anyone help with this?
I found what my problem was. Someone had been tinkering iside the camera, and a ribbon cable was not seated correctly.
What i do is usually put it onto manual focus then back to auto focus, what it may be is that you are using the wrong lens for your subject :/

I have the exact same problem.
When my camera is set on auto focus, it will jump around like his and try to focus and then i get the blinking green light and it will not take a picture. Does not matter what lens i have on it. It will still take pictures on manual settings, but will do nothing when on auto.
I'm using the Cannon lens that came with the camera body. Doing a hard spin of the zoom wheel seems to make it work for a random period of time.
