Getting the right parts is now more difficult than ever before, since Covid ended manufacturing many electronic parts, mostly semiconductors! Not mentioning the price increase and the extended arrival time that now can be well over a year until products are made and shipped again. For instance a simple 25AA256-I_SN I2C 32KB soic-8 Eeprom now has a delivery time of over a year now. And I hope it will arrive from a Chinese seller on eBay after being ordered on 4 March this year. And only Mouser was able to provide a special PIC32MZ2048EFH64-250I/PT 32-bit microcontroller.
Since no other seller had those parts in stock world-wide!

good job on the repair and not giving up. Yes, I go through that struggle to find the right parts for the repair and at the end I end up making my own replacement based on the tech sheet provided on the net.
about the plug I totally agree with you. I recently bought a dental floss machine and it has the same kind of plug ( bought in USA and it works on 12 volts. i had to cut off the plug from the original power supply attach it to a one that bought from a local store here and now it is working on 220 stepping down to 12 volts. eaiser that way..have a blessed day and thanks for sharing

Well done! That was a very good repair of a device that looked like a written off case! Your patience and perseverance paid!

Well done mate. Just like you, I struggle to find components that suit, especially in Australia.
