How to diagnose which repair you need for your Godox Flash

Your Godox flash is broken. Here is how to get it repaired.

If you have come here, it is likely that…

The mean wind tipped over your light stand and broke your flash
Gravity won the battle and snatched your flash from your kung fu grip
Some little demon hopped up on fruit snacks and goldfish crackers crashed into your flash
You heard a loud bang and saw a puff of smoke from your flash like you elected a new pope (and the crowd roared its approval)
You are getting an E1 or E3 error on your flash's screen (E what? E this!).
Your flash powers on but will not fire (studid flash)
Or, some other frustrating, weird problem.

Never fear…MoLight is here to help! We repair most Godox flashes and their Flashpoint-branded equivalents.
