A service manual for the 8000 series would be amazing too because that's the one I need to get fixed.

7000 would perhaps help as I imagine it's very similar inside, but not really sure. It's still useful to have that in the public domain though.

I believe all 8000 series (at least the equivalent of the OZ-8000, -8200, -8600 models; there were some IQ-8xxx models that used the larger screen of the OZ-95xx and -96xx) used the same LCD. I was told by one of the engineers that they differed only in RAM and ROM, but I don't have any 8xxxx service manuals to check.

Well someone in Sharp contacted me, so I've asked them if they have the service mauals. The guys was joking that the software I was talking about (CE-491W) was older than him, which is probably true. They're going to try and get me version 1 of the software.
