Dealer would not have the schematic, since the unit is not actually repairable by the dealer. Need to get a copy of the engineering drawing from the engineers who designed the unit.
Connecting a 12 volt source (or even a 9-volt source) to the unit while it was out and then using a volt meter might help in determine which trace on the circuit board is positive, which is negative.
