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
