David,
If the bulb is missing or broken, you don't need a "board".  All you 
need is a new bulb.  It pops right in there.  You split the casing apart 
and remove old bulb and insert new one. My advice is not to bother 
though, as it doesn't last long at all and doesn't shine very brightly.  
The dealer has plenty of these bulbs handy.  They'll probably just give 
one to you.
