Set was intermittent on power up but operated fine once established.
After 6 weeks of steadily getting worse, taking severl clicks on remote
and or pushbutton on set, would not come up at all. Disassembled and
found thermister for degause bad but nothing visable in remaining pwoer
supply area. Need a Sams if someone has one to share and or any info
about what to check next. I tried tracing circuit by eye but to many
jumpers on top side of board for me.

Replace 220uf cap near power regulator controller IC. I don't have the
location number, but it should not be hard to find.

Dave,

The 220 cap was the problem. Thanks, Glenn
