slow blinking light on ZIP when disk inserted

["Richard E. Hawkins Esq." <hawk@eyry.econ.iastate.edu>]

augh.  I think my zip died.  It gets found, but when I put a disk in, after 
the series of fast blinks of the orange light, it begings a slow blink (about 
1.5s cycle), which never stops.  this happens whether plugged in or not.  
however, it doesn't click, and i've tried this on a handful of disks, which 
stil work on other drives.

Is there any hope? or am i zipless?  Is there any way I can get it fixed other 
then sending to Iomega (no way that I'm going to trust them again . . .)
