Jeff,
Here are the current part numbers and price for the major assemblies of the
3458A. The A1 board is the most complex and expensive and requires complete
calibration after replacement or service. As you can see, the A1 module cost is
>$2000. Better plan! Agilent will repair (fixed rate) which includes bringing
everything up to current ECN, fully margin test, and provide certified
calibration for ~$2500. The resultant product is a world class DMM and well
worth the investment.
Regards...
Don

Jeff,
Based on the completed prices on Ebay, you may want to consider getting it
repaired by Agilent. The cheapest on Ebay
was $2000, and it went up from there. I can also give you a few cal labs
that do repairs as well.
