The camera works perfectly fine without film ut as soon as i insert film The 400 iso shows and a flashing zero where the film count is suppost to be. I purchased my film from walgreens , Color , 400 iso. I even have tried black and white. Im not sure what to do because EVERYTHING works fine without the film.
There are contacts that "read" the film. Try cleaning them. If that does not work, check in the manual where to make the ASA in manual mode. That means ever time you load film, you have to check to make sure your ASA of the film matches the camera. If that work, you are good to go. These cameras are from the 90's.

wgokey1,
yes it should auto rewind. if it's new take it back to where you bought it. if not new, get an estimate cost before repaired.

You might try closing the film compartment without film in it and press the manual rewind button. This might reset the counter circuit.

You need one 2CR5 lithium cell for your camera. They're still available, see here for details. Note that other suppliers stock them as well, I only link to the supplier provided as they're where I buy mine and the page shows you alternative model numbers that the battery is sometimes known by.
Please take a moment to rate my answer.

Okay. Just bear in mind that the exposure meter is going to be two stops off, unless you're getting the film pull-processed.
The Maxxum 3Xi unfortunately does not have a way of overriding the Camera Automatic Sensing portion of the DX encoding standard. That is, if the film cartridge has the DX encoding, the camera will set itself to the indicated speed.
However, if the film cartridge is NOT encoded, the camera will set itself to ISO 100. So, if you tape over the magnetic encoding on the cartridge...
The CAS is not the barcode on the film cartridge, but the rectangular patches of conductive and nonconductive material.
Take a look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DX_encoding for more information about the DX encoding.
