Lomo Instant: Why won't the film eject?

Wed, 09 Apr 2025 11:39:22 -0700

Every time I take a picture, the flash goes if the setting is on, the clicking noise of capture happens, and I can hear the motor trying to push the film out, but it doesn’t. What could be causing this problem? What is broken? How do I fix it?

Lomography won’t repair this for me because my uncle bought it for me as a gift on Amazon

I've replaced the battery, and even if I put in a new film, the red light doesn't turn green.

Lomo Instant: What does the orange light mean?

I turn on my camera and the light goes from red to orange, not green. I’ve changed batteries and film and nothing seems to work.

I’ve replaced the batteries and it seems like I placed it correctly but it won’t turn on. Also noticed that my old battery had exploded and left some orange stuff inside . I’ve cleaned most of it out . Any tips would be great! I need this for my birthday coming up.
