1 thing it could be bad solder joints, but I am leaning towards a bad thermal-MOV(thermistor) that drives the degausser.
Do I have any way of verifying bad solder or bad thermal-MOV? Are we talking about weak solder throughout the board or a couple of trouble spots? I've re-soldered failed joints on the SE analog board, no problem. But if we are talking about something in the middle of the power supply with a lot of tiny surface mount stuff nearby, then it's probably beyond my skill.

What about thermal-MOV part replacement? Is bad thermistor a death sentence for the analog board?
