If you want to use the flight recorder for any claim/competition then
opening kills the electronic seal, so it needs to go to the factory (or
approved repair agent outside the US) anyway after fixing.

On the last two flights, the needle on my 302 stopped moving. Cycling
the power didn't bring the needle to life, but the everything else
continued to work: audio, slow/fast arrows, averager, MC setting, GPS.
The first flight, it began moving again after a half hour or so; on the
second flight, it didn't start working again until I tried it again
about an hour after I landed.
Is there fix for this besides sending it back to Cambridge?

some older models had a problem with the indicater coming loose or
falling off,
again requiring an opening of unit to reclue the needle on its axle
and of course a reseal by approved dealer or factory.
