Hi Wade,

Just looked at my manual, and your memory serves you well.
Looks like a likely cause of the problem.

*Ben,*
*        Don't lose hope yet. I have a copy of the schematic. I do however
remember the two electrolytic caps on the input  ( red wire ) giving
trouble. one is a 33uf @16 volts and the other 10uf @16volts. My memory is
going but, believe that one or the other have shorted in the past causing
the same problem that you now have. They are C25 and C24 ( If the board is
labeled ) If needed, I will drag out my old flat bed scanner and do my best
to get you a copy of the PA section. While you are in there, replace the 2
caps anyway. Temp rating 105c and higher voltage. *
