If you think it might have something to do with the battery that is attached.? Remove the battery.? If you have a AA battery pack, load it with fresh cells and see.? If you have a cigarette lighter, or USB style charging cord you could go that route.? You can also use any wall wort that provides DC per the manual:
EXT DC Jack
This coaxial DC jack
allows connection to
an external DC power
source (6-16V DC).
The center pin of this
jack is the Positive (+)
connection.
