See note sent to me below can anyone help with this.

Vibraslim Bass
Hi, I bought my Vibraslim in Edinburgh in 1967 but haven't played it for many years as I ended up with a Fender Jazz. Recently I pulled it from under the bed (brought here to Canada about 20 years ago) and tried it out. No sound. I took it to a guitar repair shop but the tech was reluctant to take apart the wiring harness as he was worried about "damage to my vintage instrument". He thinks one pickup is fine, one is very weak, but can't tell where the wiring or component failure is without a wiring diagram.
Do you have any idea where I might find one?
