Corded Stihl Bge 71 Leaf Blower Stopped Working

I tried a variety of fixes: tried 3 different extension cords - nothing. Tried using different plugs with different extension cords - still nothing. I've owned it for a number of years with no problems. What could be the problem and is it worth fixing?
