A DMCA exemption wouldn’t allow franchise owners to use an alternative repair company

That's not the point. Often there's nothing actually wrong with the machine, you simply need to be able to reset a system flag which you can easily do using the box that Kytch makes. So the Franchisee buys a Kytch box and then doesn't need to call ANYBODY.
