Yes. Next time you get it unlocked, LEAVE IT UNLOCKED! (Yes, I'm
shouting.) Contact a local locksmith who is a member of SAVTA to
service it. It's several orders of magnitude easier for the locksmith
and cheaper for the customer to repair a malfunctioning safe when it's
unlocked.

This link should help you find a reputable sefe technician.
