Help w/ PW mini/flex please!

My flash wont fire off camera with my mini/flex combo. Sometimes it fires one shot, but thats all. All the channels are the same and everything. I bought theses 2 months ago and havent had any problems since. Ive heard that the battery life is pretty good so I think thats out of the picture. If you have any ideas, please let me know. Thanks in advace.

Can we get a little bit more info? What camera? Which Flash?

Changing the batteries should always be your first course of action.

You have to look a the LEDs on the PW units to look at the battery status. Any red blinks and you have battery issues (it's all in the manual what the blinks mean).

Never trust any cheap battery status meter.
Always keep at least one full replacement set, and if there's ANY lack of reliability the FIRST thing
to do is to replace batteries. I even keep a set of regular batteries on hand, because I know that sometimes one of my 120 ni-cad's might go bad. IF I'm ever in doubt, I put the duracel's in.

Like everyone else said, look to replace the battery first and then retry.

If that doesn't work, then look to reset everything back to default by downloading the PocketWizard utility tool. Make sure you have the latest firmware on both and then follow the instructions to reset.
