Why is my instax mini taking 3 random pictures when turned on?

My Instax is taking 3 random pictures once it's turned on (which sometimes develop and sometimes turn out black) then the lights start to blink after it finishes taking the pictures. I've tried changing the battery and it didn't work. I also removed the film (which was then empty as the camera used up all the film) but it continuesto take random pictures automatically when it's turned on then starts blinking and I can't take any pictures. I bought the camera only a few months ago and used 2 film packs which worked perfectly. Thanks :(

Hi,

Here is a link to contact Fujifilm. As your camera is only a few months old, I suggest that you contact them on the Toll Free number at the bottom of the page in the link and find out if they know of a "fix" for your camera and also anything more that you want to know about a Warranty repair.

Before you call them please read the Repair card so that you are aware of all the options available to you, what you need to have and what costs are applicable to you, for a warranty repair.

I have the same problem, yet I don't have a guarantee...

After the first 3 shots I get the "Red Light of death"

I disassembled the camera to see how it works: here are my findings, but I don't know what a working version should act like, so I can't trace the problem.
