Kodak Z1485IS lens wont retract and camera only stays on for 3 seconds then turns itself off.The batteries are fully charged kodak li-lon klic 8000. Camera has not been used all that much.
Here are the steps:
1. Make sure you will install a new or fully charged battery/batteries into your camera.
2. Clean the battery contacts.
a. Remove the battery/batteries and the memory card from your camera, then wipe the battery contacts with a soft, clean cloth.
b. Reinstall the battery/batteries into your camera
3. Without the memory card,turn on your camera.
If issue persists, call 1.800.235.6325 for repair.
Thanks.

Remove the batteries and clean the battery contacts inside the camera
with a soft cloth (a heavy buildup on the contacts may require cleaning
with a fine wire brush, steel wool, or sandpaper). Remove any residue
that the cleaning leaves in the camera, and then reinstall the
batteries. This clears most power-on problems, but if yours persists,
check the Kodak troubleshooting guide at:

This problem is frequently due to corroded battery terminals inside the
camera. Remove the batteries and wipe the terminals with a soft cloth
(heavy corrosion may require a fine wire brush, steel wool, or
sandpaper). Remove any residue left in the camera by the cleaning.
Clean the terminals on the batteries in the same manner, and then
replace them in the camera. This cures most problems, but if it
doesn't work for you, check the Kodak troubleshooting guide at:

This problem is frequently the result of corroded battery contacts inside the camera. Remove the batteries and wipe the inside camera contacts with a soft cloth (heavy corrosion may require cleaning with a fine wire brush, steel wool, or fine sandpaper). Make sure there's no cleaning residue left inside the camera, then clean the battery contacts and reinstall the batteries. If this doesn't solve the problem you may have something more serious wrong with camera and I recommend checking the Kodak troubleshooting guide at:

It is likely that foreign matter got into the lens mechanism. I have a a truly junk one. I took it apart to clean out sand particles in the mechanism. Unfortunately getting the thing back together correctly is near impossible and now the lenses are fouled. Go through the kodak troubleshooter as indicated in prior posts and send it in for repair. Of course, if it is out of warranty I wouldn't bother. Very likely to cost more to repair than replace.
