Error 05 flash doesn't pop up

Does flash pop up? Does the little electronic flash symbol appear in the LCD when it charges? Really not enough info in your post.

A few thoughts:

If the flash will not pop up check the external flash detection pin in the hot shoe (located on one side under the spring, which can be popped off with a knife blade or similar). If this is stuck down the flash will not pop up because the camera thinks there is an external flash in the hot shoe.

If the flash pops up and you get an 05 error or it makes a clicking noise and you get an 05 error this usually means sticky liquid spillage around the flash. It needs to be disassembled and cleaned and the pivots lubed. Squirting WD40 on the flash WILL NOT SOLVE THIS PROBLEM. NEVER SQUIRT WD40 IN ANY CAMERA!!!!!

It the flash pops up, and the little electronic flash symbol comes on, but goes out when you push the release button it usually means the flash board is bad.

If the camera has been impacted, then either the flash tube is cracked/broken or one of the wires that goes to it or the trigger coil may be broken inside

The Error 05 means the build in flash cannot be raised.
In the moment it should pop up, something was blocking the free movement. Could be caused by the way you were holding the camera. Could be happening, while you were pressing the flash button, or when you are in the basic zone shooting mode, such as portrait, which needs the use of the flash.
Switch the camera off an then on again. Move an eventually cause of the blocking and press the shutter realise button again.

There is no error code F5. Could you mean 05? That is a flash error

see this causes and fix it. God bless you
Reset the code read your instr. manual

If the coffee maker doesn't work at all, make sure power is on at the outlet, check the electric cord, the internal fuse or the thermostat and heating elements replace as needed.

reset the error code and read your instr. manual. God bless you
proceed according.

ERR 01 is a lens communication error. Try cleaning the contacts on the lens and in the mirror box.

ERR 05 is a flash error. It is usually caused because the flash failed to pop up. This can be casued by something as simple as the flash hitting the brim of a 'gimme' cap or impact to the flash or most likely spillage of sticky liquid around the flash and its pivots.

The XT also is notorious for having the bottom right screw of the rear circuit board come loose and short out some function of the camera, or even blow the main fuse or damage the circuit boards.

This could happen when the surrounding temperature is too cold. The camera uses a spring to pop up the flash. If the oil around the spring freezes, the flash will not pop up at all.

The other thought is about the spring itself. if the spring losses, it will cause the flash not pop up again.

If those are not the issues, you may want to bring it to technical support.

Error 05 means that something mechanically prevents built in flash to pop up. Ensure that nothing is blocking flash. Switch in P mode and press flash button to pop it up. If it does not pop up - try _gently_ to help it to pop up. If you succed in popping up the flash - check it for any dirt with can prevent flash from popping up.

Err 05 means: Something obstructed the built-in flash's pop-up operation. Turn off the main switch and turn it on again.

Prepare to press the flash request button with your left hand. With your right hand, position your thumb and finger to gently pry up the flash head, perhaps using fingernails. Push the button and pry. With that help, it should pop up.

Error 05 means - Something is obstructing the built-in flash.... Try to reclean it. Good luck!
