make sure when you press the round selection button on the back of the camera flash option, you press the ok in the center of the button on the back.
it will show brief yellow AUTO in the LCD screen upper right corner for a sec.
when you are going to take a picture holding the shutter button half way down, you should see up at the right corner outside of the LCD screen a red led flashing to indicate flash is ready.
one thing to try if this is not working, find the camera reset option in the menu. after doing this you may have to reset the date & time. it will bring the camera back to default settings
on the bad side if these dont work, possible flash circuit may have failed inside the camera.
good luck!
