CT 36 AC panel replacement

So I got the magic blue smoke turning on the vac. Upon disassembly the board tag Festool 498706. Can’t find anywhere. Is there possibly an upgrade from a newer model that fits?
Thanks

It could be worth first just trying to replace that resistor that's blown. It's got the 5W rating marked so the ohm value should be on it too.

It may have blown as a result of another issue, or it could have just been faulty. Either way it's easy thing to check.

I appreciate the response. I don’t have the time or skill for that. I would like to just replace or upgrade the part. Maybe I’ll keep it to learn on later.
