Flashlight not always turning on

[Benjamin_Bernha]

Please tell us some basic information before asking for help:
Model Name: Zenfone 6
Firmware Version: .137
Rooted or not: not
Frequency of Occurrence: often
APP Name & APP Version (If your issue relates to the app):
In addition to information above, please also provide as much details as you can, e.g., using scenario, what troubleshooting you've already done, screenshot, etc.
========================================
For some time now whenever i try turning on my flashlight the light only flashes for a second and then turns off, in android it's still shown as being on however. This doesn't happen all the time but more like 60 ish % of the time i try using my flashlight.

Anyone else experiencing this? Or is this a hardware problem by any chance. Recently factory restored my phone as well.
