Pentax Ricoh WG-III sudden failure, will not power on

Can this problem be solved without going to a service repair center? Battery is good. Flash card is good. Battery makes contact in camera.

Not likely- could be a main board failure.

First check that the contacts on the battery and camera are clean. Otherwise, yes it needs a service.
