Sandisk Cruzer Flash Drive suddenly refusing to connect

My Sandisk Cruzer flash drive (Model SDCZ36-128G), after several years of no trouble, is suddenly deciding to stay disconnected. It connects for just a second and then just as suddenly disconnects. I have tried multiple USB ports on my computer. I have tried uninstalling the driver. I keep getting the same results. Please advise…thanks in advance.
