Robo,
Try using MS76 batteries. The A76's are too weak to run the camera.
The shutter won't fire without electricity - electromagnetic release.
The first 2-3 shots on a Super Program register at 1/1000th and I suppose the
Program Plus does this too. It's a feature that prevents the tyro from
taking a 2 minute exposure because they left the lens cap on while loading a
new roll of film.
250 speed and +3 means that you have the shutter set at 1/250th and it is +3
stops overexposed. Auto mode should get you a speed automatically. With the
lens on 'A', the camera will pick an exposure and shutterspeed.
Regards, Bob S.
