Try opening the unit and making sure the power plug is fully inserted. Seen it a lot when people launch and it goes flying or someone was in a hurry to sell it and just yanked it out of the car. Other than that, its gonna be a bit more expensive fix.

Take a look at the solder connections to the fluorescent display. The display is the biggest component in the SAFC and it may have vibrated it's solder joints loose...
