Jessops 360 AFDP & DL2 - Help!

I've just bought the Pentax version of the Jessops AFD360. £48 in the clearance sale. It works on my GX-10 in Auto, head zooms, correct exposure, firing on trailing curtain, etc.
When I put it on my DL2 it will only work in manual, no zooming head, blown out pictures.
Has anybody had success using this flash with a DL, or DS? I'm hoping I'm missing something simple in the settings.
Any suggestions gratefully received
I did notice on the Samsung it seems a bit temperamental as to how you mount it to get the contacts working, which I think I have read in another thread

Thanks
Peter

hi saw that too in another thread about the contacts but once that is right you're fine, which i am hoping is the case on the K10D as I just got my brother to pick up the self same flash from Jessops in Birmingham. Now I have to wait until June to get it!
