EOS Rebel T7 Flashing green light and busy message. Stopped working…??

I am a newbie to using this camera (Canon Rebel EOS T7). I ve used it for a couple hundred pictures and then I am unable to get the shutter to take a picture. In the view finder, I get a flashing green light with a number 9 next to it. I also get a busy message that flashes, the ISO is 3200 and have it set on the A+ on the dial… Like I said, its work the whole time until Bam…I am not sure if a setting got changed that I can’t figure out? Like I said - total newbie here!

You may have an issue with your onboard flash needing sufficient time to recharge.

Hi again:  Sorry about the mixup of models for the video on the camera controls.  This is the most comprehensive tutorial I can find on the T7/T7i (almost identical):  You may find it helpful

Try resetting the camera settings and custom functions back to factory defaults.

Another thought, have you tried another lens to see if it makes a difference?

I am having the same issues as you but mine will not take a picture in AF or Manual focus. I have a black screen on the back and I can’t get into any menu options. Does anyone have any suggestions?
