Smart wheel controller

My post is not about a Foretravel  but there might be someone that can help me. The company that made these systems was sold and the new outfit does not provide any tech support other than an online troubleshooting guide. There are various models of this system. Mine is an SM211. Year 2008. The controller tests bad. There are no replacements due to chip shortages. (Surprise). No expected date. Everything works except the horn. I double taped a tiny horn button and ran a wire to the air horn solenoid. But I would like to get the horn working properly. Has anyone had luck finding a shop that can repair the controller? Thanks.

We have a member that has fixed a Smart Wheel controller for a couple of our members.  Jim does repairs on several types of PC boards so it might be worth dropping him a private message.  Here is his profile https://www.foreforums.com/index.php?action=profile;u=891

Unfortunately Jim cannot work on the controller. Thanks for that Link to Veurinks. I have tried every link that Google finds. New ones are not available
 Surplus fo not exist. The wrecking yards sell electric items with no returns. I am back to square one. But I appreciate the responses.

Ours didn't work, looking closer I found the contacts weren't connecting.
Some careful manipulation fixed the problem.
