Brown & Sharpe Validator

I spent many years reading the forum but never posted. Now. At our shop is a Brown & Sharpe Validator (around mid to late 80’s). It currently runs with PCDMIS. The limit switch which stops the bridge in the X axis is no longer working. It’s an electronic board which a ribbon plugs into. The pool of people who even know what a CMM is can be quite limited. I am looking for input where to find such a thing. Any ideas about this would be welcomed.
