Error (2002) Preventing Restoration.

I am attempting to restore my iPad Mini, Error 2002 keeps occurring. Is there anything I can do at home to fix this issue?


I have tried to turn it off, hold the home button down and plugging it back in to do a restore. I click Restore, then restore and update. It will download the new software and act like its going to work, but then at the very end that error message pops up.

iPad 2 Wi-Fi + Cellular, iOS 9.3.2
