Powers on, wont load film, beeps constantly, Can't select a mode, iso or anything. Shows film and battery bars only. Batteries are charged, spool is clear. Can anyone help please????
It sounds like the motor is locked up. The gears under the bottom of the camera may have gotten sluggish from dried out lubrication. You can take the bottom off to see if the gears are able to turn freely or check with a local camera repair shop.

I had a similar problem today with my camera. I'm not an expert on Cannon cameras or any cameras for that matter, but this is what I did to fix the problem.
I removed the bottom cover(has 6 screws i believe) carefully sliding the cover up starting near the battery cover. Holding the camera still I checked what gears I could to make sure they were free, but one small gear that moves up and down was stuck. I applied a very small amount of force to the gear to free it, reattached the cover and all the screws, and BAM! I was back to taking pictures.
Hopes this helps.
p.s if you can't find one of the screws its under the battery cover flap :).

I'm having exactly the same problem - my T70 just beeps constantly! I've tried changing the batteries and the film, but it didn't help. Anybody have any ideas?
Same thing, T70 worked beautifully until I changed the batteries. Now it only beeps! Someone please help,

I have the same problem with My T70 as others have described. NO LCD and for a while it just bleeped when switched on. I understand that the T70 has an internal battery that can only be changed by a service agent. This may be the problem.
