eh. give me schematics. i can't fix anything beyond trivial issues without it.

then it won't be as much of a black box.

beyond trivial issues

I'd argue that 10-15% of issues are trivial issues and are worth investigating even without a schematic if the alternative is just throwing something away.

and i do because i don't want to throw away this expensive piece of tech. but like, manufacturers in the early 2000s were still sharing this very valuable information with me. i hate planned obsolescence with a passion.
