Skymap IIIC

Any technically minded ppruners who can give me a bit of advice?

Got a IIIC installed in a heli, one day it comes up with "batteries low" and turned itself off mid flight..... luckily had my maps on my knee!!!

Took the unit out of the heli and tested power connections (power coming through the leads of the intrument panel), and tried to plug in using the supplied AC adapter.....nothing.....not a jot....

Updated the PCMCIA database card thingy, but still nothing.....

Is this a "dead parrot"? Anybody had a similar experience? Anybody know a good service centre?

Any help much appreciated!!!
