L&M HID light field repairable?

My beloved Light and Motion HID light died last night . I was carrying my bike out of the basement and lightly brushed the wire going into the light and it died. Even though I hardly touched it, I'm assuming that a connection's broken inside the light.

I haven't looked at the light too closely-can I safely open it up and repair it? (L&M's website says not to.)

Thanks in advance for any help.

I would send it back to them, as the lights do not look to be user friendly from a repair point of view.

I believe the manual mentions that going "under the hood" on the L&M lights voids the warranty.
