: too many hits at Google for "talkie": "walkie talkie", "talkie walkie" (French), "Handie Talkie"...

Talkie
Context please. When I was growing up, トーキー was walkie-talkie. Doing a Google search on トーキー, I got other options. I have forgotten that "Talkie" or sound movies, as opposed to silents, was one definition. Given that it's paired with 故障, I suppose it's some sort of device that alerts someone when there's equipment trouble.

broken transceiver
While "talkie" is the direct literal translation, 'transceiver' is one of the technologies used to make such a system work. If you don't think talkie is appropriate for your context, consider this.
also 'two way radio'
also 'two way radio'

: I think transceiver (and walkie-talkie of Altinbay) is as plausible as talkie of cinefil.
