Puzzle Answer

Viewoscope is fixed.

Puzzle Solution

Concept draft is that someone misconnected the cables, leading to a blowout. Players must identify which cables carry which voltage (or current), and trace their endpoints to see which ones were miswired. Swapping them solves the puzzle and activates the viewoscope.
