Get an old fashioned pencil with an eraser. Clean the battery contacts

They aren't worth repair, unfortunately, unless you're willing and able
to do the work yourself. Last time I priced a used 280T it was
something like 20 dollars. The minimum repair cost of a more modern
flash is about 300 and right now KEH.com has a AF540FGZ for about
$140.00. Repair simply
"First Impression" is 1/125th second at F/8, ISO 800, Vivitar 285HV flash set to
yellow.
"Big_Boy_OWL" is 1/60th second at f/11, ISO 102400.
I want to cry every time I look at it. I should have gone back to the car and
got my tripod.

The other two were stored without batteries. When I put batteries in
them they won't turn on at all. I'm sure I did something wrong with them
as well.
No need to do anything wrong there. They can very well take care of
killing themselves.

First up is a lesson that if you can't get a fast enough shutter speed to hand
hold it, GO BACK TO THE CAR AND GET THE DAMN TRIPOD. There's just too much
noise. FWIW, it looks great on the back of the camera.
