I expect that a proper repair entails removing the wiring harness and rewiring it. That will not be a problem for me.
I think this problem is what is scaring people away and driving the price down, but a repaired harness on eBay is $500.
It probably won't be easy, but it's work I enjoy.

Two air cooled cars, I can't part with them. A 996, maybe, I'm less connected to it, and a V70R 6 speed that can be sold, but it's so practical, and it's good tow vehicle for my garden trailer.
