Hi,
To reset your Nikon Speedlight SB-600 you need to press Mode + ON/OFF, both buttons simultaneously for approximately 2 seconds to reset all settings, including the custom settings (except the distance unit selected in m/ft) to their default values.
If this doesn't work for you, please comment and let me know, and I will be more than happy to assist you to further resolve your issue.
I will appreciate your feedback and positive rating for this free solution.
With new batteries in the flash, and it being off camera what happens when you press the test button. If still it does not flash call Nikon 1-800-645-6689
I believe that there is a safety feature built in that if the voltage in the capacitor gets too large the flash will fire, to prevent damage, could be this that is faulty, if it is a new main circuit board is required.
The problem is probably caused by a fault in the main power circuit board, if the red light doesn't come on then you also probably won't hear the high pitched noise as the capacitor charges. Will be expensive to repair as you will need a new circuit board.
I haven't heard of this problem but compliments of velocityreviews I came up with this.
Follow the instructions below to attach an external Speedlight. Refer to your Speedlight manual for detailed instructions regarding Speedlight operation.
1 Make sure that both the camera and the external Speedlight are
turned off.
2 Attach the Speedlight to the camera accessory shoe.
3 Turn both the camera and the Speedlight on.
4 Set the external Speedlight zoom head to an angle wider than
28 mm. If you are using a Speedlight with Auto Power Zoom, set the zoom head angle manually. The COOLPIX5700 does not support power zoom.
5 Set the external Speedlight flash mode to TTL.
At this setting, the amount of light produced by the external Speedlight is measured by the camera?s photocell, and the flash shooting range adjusted automatically to ensure optimal exposure. D-TTL flash control
(available with the SB-80DX, SB-50DX and SB-28DX) is not supported.
6 Take the picture
If the Speedlight Options: Speedlight Control option in the SET-UP
menu is set to Auto, only the external Speedlight will fire. If this option is set to Int & Ext Active then the external Speedlight and the builtin Speedlight will fire at the same time.
The COOLPIX5700 does not support AF-assist illumination, or red-eye
reduction using the red-eye reduction lamp on the external Speedlight.
At a setting of STBY (standby), the Speedlight will turn on automatically whenever the camera turns on but will not turn off automatically when the camera turns off.
Exact functionality varies with the Speedlight in use. Refer to your Speedlight manual for details.
I hope it's of some help
