So having parts should not be a problem. Sal, There is a huge difference between ASSEMBLING a PCB (Printed Circuit Board) and the components that go on the board. Leica does not make the components. The obsolete component issue is a huge one with electronics. The Contax RX, which has digital focus indication, had to be discontinued due to the unavailability of the focus indicator sensors by the manufacturer, and as I've said, sensors like this cost a LOT more to make than a single gear, because they can not be made in "onesies".
