The red flash is most likely the focus assist beam trying to find the subject. If the camera then does not flash, it could be the camera is having difficulty focusing on the subject itself..
An experiment would be to see if the camera indicates it is focus locked on the subject when the flash is not firing. Usually, the camera will not fire the flash unless it can focus.
If the light is lower, experiment by putting a bit more light on the subject and see if this improves the flash performance.
If not, it may be a defect in the flash, but it sounds like it is trying to work but just can't lock onto what you are trying to shoot.
Hope this helps.
