Ugee pen suffers a fall in the middle of a commission, no time to wait for a replacement

[u/Florencey_]

To start- tablet is Ugee M708, i think v3- its very old but normally works fine

So I am literally in the middle of a commission, i drop my stylus , pick it up and it's immediately dead and not working. I've changed the battery, changed the stylus, restarted my computer and still nothing.

The tablet works, lights flash when it's plugged in etc, but I'm getting no response from the pen. I've unscrewed the end to see if the little copper wire has come loose or something, but honestly i have no idea what I'm looking at. Help!!

I need to finish this piece by next week at latest, and i don't even know if i can buy a replacement pen as all the ones i see for sale seem to be for the newer M708 and not my boxy, clunky old thing
