If the battery is properly inserted and fully charged, and the device still does not power on, the battery itself could be defective. Changing the battery would fix this. The specific battery model for the camera is the EN-EL19 lithium ion battery. The battery replacement is a Lenmar DLZ319N.

This camera requires service.

Because the camera is what is technically known as 'Portable'and is designed to work purely from the internal battery. the Power Adapter merely charges the internal battery

The flashing Orange light means the charge is flashing.
The flashing Green light means the focus and exposure are not correct.

Have you recently replaced the batteries? Or are you using rechargeable batteries? Lack of enough "Juice" could allow for the flash to not charge up (Orange) therefore not allowing the camera to get the correct exposure (Green). I would try new fresh batteries or a new battery pack. If that doesn't fix the issue it must be a bad circuitry in the body that is shorting not letting the flash charge.

If the charging light is flashing then this indicates that the charger is okay. But if the camera is not charging still then one of two things could be the problem either the battery has not been properly fixed in its base therefore the power being supplied by the charger is not sufficient enough and therefore the battery does not charge.
On the other hand the battery could have run out of juice completely therefore not be able to retain power anymore.
Hope this solution has been helpful?

KODAK Easyhare digital camera light status
1. Blinking green light(or blinking blue or white light in some models) - Means camera is performing a power up procedure. Note: Wait a few moments to see if the camera displays a solid green (or blue or white) light or a blinking red light.
2. Solid green light(or blinking blue or white light in some models) - Means Camera has sufficient power
3. Blinking red light - Means camera batteries are weak or need replacement; If battery are new and still red light camera needed to be repaired

Red light indicates that the camera is out of charged., Try to charged your battery for 3-4 hrs if you encounter flashing red on a fully charged battery you need to call kodak 1 800 235 6325 ext 12

You can charged you camera using 5V AC Adaptor or a USB cable taht attached into the computer

Make sure you are using the correct batteries, and that they are installed correctly. Some cameras require more powerful kinds of batteries and will not work with the cheaper kinds.
A blinking light can mean something is wrong with the power, not enough or something else.
If you have a power adapter or can get one, you may try that, to see if the camera will work without batteries. If it does, then some problem exists in the battery circuit.

I had the same problem - and wondered if if might be that the battery didn't have enough 'grunt' to close the lense - so I am charging it via the actual charger (rather than through the computer) and sure enough, I turned it on and then off, and the lense closed. The green light comes on when I plug the camera into the computer to download photos, and I thought this was therefore charging the battery, but maybe it doesn't charge it properly. Anyway, my lense is now closed and the battery is still charging (light is still red). Good luck.

It could need a new battery.  The battery can't hold a charge in it anymore.
