If the thing is working (and, as I said, ATC will let you know if something is amiss), make an appointment to get the thing checked, and go fly. A transponder is hardly a flight-critical instrument. The Regs allow for operation within Class B without a transponder, working or absent. Even under the Veil! I frequently fly in and out of several airports within the KCVG CBSA (Cincinnati) veil in a 1945 Aeronca Champ with no electrical system. I also flew into controlled fields beneath the KATL CBAS enroute to and from SNF last year. A transponder is not a "safety of flight" device.
