I'm looking for internal Cibola pics

There's a PDF that I believe was from either Sven or Kieth southern about how to do the GB mod on the bibola that has quite a few pics of the cibols board and wiring. It's what I used to mod my cibola.
Here the conversation here on findmall about it and pinenut linked the PDF for download.
Hope that helps!!

Edit: it was Sven who created the PDF just for posterity sake I wanted to mention that. :)
 
What are you attempting to do inside? Or did a wire break off?
 
There's the man himself!!!
Sven will have you covered sir.
 
The detector isn’t working properly. I turn it on and it makes the its normal 2 or 3 beeps then it produces a a non-stop tone. I opened the control box and a 2 inch piece of white wire fell out and also a green wire fell out (both seemed too stiff)I wanted to see if I could determine where these wires may go and hopefully solve my problem. It looks like the cord going into the coil is permanent because I thought that could’ve been the issue but doesn’t look like I can adjust that cord without cutting it. I believe I watched one of your videos and I was able to confirm all wire locations on one side of the board but need pics of the other side.. I stopped using this machine about 8 years ago due to this problem but thought it’d be cool to bring it out and see if I could solder wires where needed.. Thanks for your time
 
Thanks I sent Stefan a message. Just joined group and not sure if I’m replying to your response but wanted to say thanks. Waiting on Stefan’s reply.
 
Waiting on a reply from me or Sven?
J didn't get a message.
He'd be able to help more. My only experience with inside the cibola was the rather nerve-racking GB mod I did using Sven PDF.
 
Tesoro used stiff wires, so they could be conformed to a shape, sometimes would break at the solder joint if pulled too hard.
Not sure if you fixed it yet. Take a look at the back of the circuit board at the soldered joints then look at the same joints from the front parts side.
If two sides show solder, might be one spot the wire broke off from. I imagine the other wire may have broken off one of the controls?
