Return it. There are lots of reports of problems with this lens. I
suspect a bad batch of AF motors and very poor QC. Mine died as well.
When I tried the lens after I got it back from Olympus I realized that
it had never worked correctly. Receiving a new lens I had expected that
whatever it did was to be expected. Wrong! Oly was very prompt in
dealing with the problem. No questions asked and very quick turn around.
I think they know about the issue.
