I think the only option for repair, out of warranty or out of repair agreement, is 'Per Incident' which the KS website lists as $2851.00. This is a 'one charge fits all' kind of repair price. It comes with a calibration as well.
It's what makes the repair agreement attractive as 'insurance' on such an expensive instrument.

The AC board 03458-66502 is obsolete, but the replacement (03458-66512) https://www.keysight.com/my/faces/partDetail.jspx?partNumber=03458-66512 is $2243.00with a $439 trade-in. So the AC board price is $1794, which is not inconsistent with a 2100 Euro repair bill.
