Flash died on my J1

Has anyone here have their flash on the J1 die?

Mine has stopped working all of the sudden.

The red dot comes on the LCD saying the flash is ready, but it just dosn't fire.

Did a reset on the camera with no help.

Nikon tech support said to send it in.

Just wondering if anyone else has had this issue, and what results were from nikon repair.

I just think my J1 misses my D800 that is currently at Nikon Repair ;-(
