Not entirely unlikely that it's just screws that need tightening. There's a spring contact between the "switch" on the chassis and the actual switch on the printed circuit board. I had a similar Line6 product where one screw holding the pcb in place to the chassis was loose, so the spring contact ends up just pushing the board away rather than engaging the switch (especially when it's on the end of the board like in your case). Opening & tightening could be all it takes.
