sensor signal to the main board as the cause by resetting all functions.
It is very likely that there is a blockage or a broken internal part

You can try some of the
procedures listed below to fix it yourself. These simple steps have
helped many people restore their cameras to functionality.
Before
trying any of the suggestions, make sure your Camera has new or fully
charged batteries and it is in recording mode. Try compressed air. With a
fine tip can of dry compressed air (not a blow dryer) set the tip
between the lens turret and the camera body and turn on the air while
moving the tip around the lens. It could possibly remove all dust and
sand. Turn the camera on and it should function fine.
