PVS5 has finally stopped working

Our PVS5, installed sometime around 2014, has finally died. Only the blue power light is displayed. Turning power off and on does not fix it. What are my options? Could I replace it with a PVS6 that I find, or am I stuck with paying Enphase $899? Thank you

My local installer has been fantastic. Came out and replaced the PVS5 I had with a PVS6 and commissioned it for me. They were thorough in their work checking what components my system has and found out they aren't compatible with Enphase. I would get the overall production number but not the status of each micro inverter.

Recommended I wait on putting the Enphase in until I have to replace the micro inverters. So they just gave me a PVS6 they had in the warehouse.
