I am an electrician and I advise you not to do any repair unless you know what you are doing. You are much better off seeking the help of one who knows. You are exposing yourself to risk of getting electric shock and worse faulty connections are a fire hazard. It is actually an easy job and just a matter of checking for loose or broken connections but since you have no idea of what is wrong and haven't done any repair yet, ask the help of people who know. If you are desperate enough to get it fixed and want to give it a try, don't do it with the main breaker on. enjoy life!
