Apple Lisa tech doc: "Lisa Video Board Level II"
From a discusson over on LisaList2: someone found some Twiggy disks that belonged to an Apple employee once upon a time. One of them had a detailed technical manual for troubleshooting and repairing Apple Lisa video boards. I used my Lisa to "print" the manual materials to my laptop and turned the result into PDFs. If this is useful to you, you can find the result here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1u-9h3tN5LE4lehCo2MidwocLdgNKoY3f?usp=drive_link . The main document is L2Video.pdf; all the other documents are figures and tables that would have been (physically) pasted into a paper copy that document for publication. At some point it would be nice to do that paste-up electronically. Happy troubleshooting!

I found this old comment of mine over on LisaList2: it might have what you need. Assumes Linux/OSX/similar and a computer with a serial port.
