LED's gone out, possible wire damage?

Hi there, I've had this track clip for about 2 years now, and gotten to the point where it's real hard to play without it.
Well today I booted up DCS and noted that the LEDs on the track clip pro arm weren't lit anymore, I double checked the USB (which appears to be still working) and checked for any obvious breaks in the wee little red and black wires inside the arm itself. There are two small black smudges on the red wire, but no obvious physical damage. This is really frustrating, and honestly I'm surprised it hasn't happened sooner. For such an expensive piece of hardware the quality of construction on the clip is quite the letdown.
Apart from soldering up a replacement, has anyone managed to get this fixed? (I received this as a very kind gift from a friend who I'm no longer in regular contact with, so returning it would be difficult)
Thanks for any help,
Sam
