Is there anything I can do to fix the equipment myself?

First, check the batteries or other power source. Make sure batteries aren't in up-side-down and that they are fresh. Then, make sure that the battery has not oxidized, creating a film between the battery and the contact. Use a pencil or ink eraser to clean the contact. Unless you are a trained technician, please don't try to take the equipment apart, because you could cause additional problems. Instead, give us a call.
