Call the White company up, and find out what it will cost to fix it. If the cost is more than what you want to spend, and the unit is old, get a new one if you can afford it. have you changed the batteries? Have you checked the switches, to see if you have them in the correct positions. Yse a check list, or refer to the manual, if you have one.

Most of White's repairs are under $100. I would send it in.

I think you can send it in for an estimate. Maybe it will cost you a few bucks for that and if you don't want to repair it you're not out a lot of money. On the other hand I have sent them dead mchines and had it fixed for typically around $115. They have even replaced a beat up coil for free. I have not experienced service like Whites anywhere else.
