test the flash on service menu to see if is a hardware problem.

which part in the service menu i have gone into service tests and theres an option to test camera but no option to test the flash.

Under the service menu the option to test the flash is called 'Discharge flash' which I believe is as the very top of the list in the service tests. If you select this and the flash does work it proves it is not a hardware problem.

Also just check again that the flash is set to auto, and you are not in any scene modes just to make sure it is not a camera setting which is stopping the flash.

Hope this helps
