AF-360fgz disaster

I love my flash but this morning I accidentally dropped it off an off camera stand and it hit the floor


now when I fire the flash it flashes for about 3 seconds straight like 100 times real quick


is it toast?

Did you ever get your flash to work properly? I dropped mine while out on a hike this past week and it landed on a rock. Broke the Red cover in front of the lens. If your flash is Kaput are you interested in parting with it? I maybe able to use it for parts.
