Fiddling seems to show the bad connection is just inside where the wrapped bundle of cables enters the case. Immobilizing all movement of the wires within the cable bundle at any point close to the base unit almost halts the blinking out of the LED even with lots of fiddling downstream of the immobilization point whereas any slight movement upstream of the immobilized wires (towards the base unit) causes tons of blinking and great difficulty getting it to light again. I would almost be tempted to just attempt to immobilize the wires near the base except that the large range of motion demanded by the attached bridge would probably defeat any immobilization scheme and I'm not sure if there would be enough slack left over for normal operation and finally any small vibration would probably still break the sensor connection (probably with infuriatingly stupid timing) and really make me regret relying on that solution. So, I'm thinking I need to open the case, inspect the cable connections for obvious opportunities to fix and if nothing can be done there, close up the patient note time of death and print up my RMA labels.
