I've done it with cars, computers, and a list of things better left dead. My struggles with a lawn mower were legendary in our neighborhood . There comes a point when its best to let it go.
I tried to revive a sublimation printer and went thru what you are experiencing. Spent quite a bit of money on inks before giving up. Luckily the inks could be used in a new printer.
