Thanks Jan - I was in fact using the AC Adapter 3 so I guess I can assume the
problem lies within that. I also have the portable pack that uses "D" cells
but, hadn't tried that to see if it works... guess that should have been my
first step!
I'd stil like to replace the modeling lights with LED bulbs - I find the ones
in the flash are a bit dim when I'm trying to use the Zuiko Macro 38mm F2.8
(bellows mount).

There are no transistors in the flash head -- just wires to bulbs. If
they "gradually faded," it's a power supply problem. If you were
using batteries, they are run down, If you were using a 6VDC power
supply of some kind, it probably died.
Try a different source of 6VDC before trying anything else!
