The Polaroid 600 OneStep series uses Polaroid's 600 Platinum film. This type of film cartridge contains its own battery. If your Polaroid 600 OneStep will not power on, the chances are good that the film cartridge's battery is dead. Unfortunately, this renders the film cartridge useless; it requires replacement. Once you replace it with a new film cartridge, the camera should power back on.
