Is that the one that's been chasing me around Whetstone and Finchley for the last three years ? It worked fine last time I saw it -- there's a problem with the power inside the case (a dry joint or something). Every time I got as far as opening the case it started working by itself -- I could never get it to go wrong for long enough to find the problem. It's probably a different one, though. Bon Chance.
