1. **State the problem:** Simplify the expression $$\frac{3x - 2}{x^2 - 2x} - \frac{2}{x - 2}$$.
2. **Factor the denominators:**
- The first denominator is $$x^2 - 2x = x(x - 2)$$.
- The second denominator is already factored as $$x - 2$$.
3. **Rewrite the expression with factored denominators:**
$$\frac{3x - 2}{x(x - 2)} - \frac{2}{x - 2}$$.
4. **Find a common denominator:** The common denominator is $$x(x - 2)$$.
5. **Rewrite the second fraction with the common denominator:**
$$\frac{2}{x - 2} = \frac{2 \cdot x}{(x - 2) \cdot x} = \frac{2x}{x(x - 2)}$$.
6. **Combine the fractions:**
$$\frac{3x - 2}{x(x - 2)} - \frac{2x}{x(x - 2)} = \frac{3x - 2 - 2x}{x(x - 2)}$$.
7. **Simplify the numerator:**
$$3x - 2 - 2x = (3x - 2x) - 2 = x - 2$$.
8. **Substitute back:**
$$\frac{x - 2}{x(x - 2)}$$.
9. **Cancel the common factor $$x - 2$$ in numerator and denominator:**
$$\frac{\cancel{x - 2}}{x \cancel{(x - 2)}} = \frac{1}{x}$$.
**Final answer:** $$\boxed{\frac{1}{x}}$$.
