Default iWaver 01 PCB repair question



I have an iwaver 01 (picked up used in a lot recently). It never ran extremely well but it officially died 48 hrs ago. It stopped responding to commands from the transmitter. Nothing is burned on the PCB. Everything was stock.

I attached its motor to another iwaver and the motor isnt dead.
I pulled out the soldering iron and disassembled the car expecting to find a wire that had popped free from its soldering point. Upon inspection i found none.
I pulled out the multimeter and performed continuity test (first time !) expecting to find a broken wire. Every wire path from the toggle switch to the battery terminals made my multimeter beep. No broken wires so far .

I tested the positive and negative battery terminal wires that led to the PCB for continuity. Both made the multimeter beep.
I tested the positive and negative wire terminals on the PCB itself and ...no beep. No continuity. I get a number fluctuation on my multimeter LCD screen but no beep.
I assume this means that the short is on the board itself and not a wire (as al wire paths made my multimeter beep). Does this sound correct?


Also...assuming this isnt a minor repair job does anyone know where i can acquire an iwaver 01 pcb ?
