Thanks for all the help so far. I've got the machine opened up again, and here's what I'm finding:
- I'd said lamp matix 1 was out in my original post, it's actually lamp matrix B.
- The schematics I have indicate the connections between the lamps and the power driver board should be through J110. J110 doesn't have anything connected to it on my power driver board (it never has, and the lamps used to work, so I'm guessing the schematic is identifying the wrong connector.)
- The row of transistors with Q6/Q10/Q14/Q18/Q22/Q24/Q28/Q32 on my power driver board are bent over a bit, like they were pressed on hard at some point. Q6 in particular seems sway easier than other transistors on the board when light pressure is applied. As these are the column transistors for lamp matrix B, I'm suspicious the bending over of the transistors weakened traces or solder joints and over time one of them has given out.
- I'm seeing ~22V on the tabs of the row transistors associated with lamp matrix A. I'm only seeing 1.1V on the row transistors for lamp matrix B.
- Test point TP1 (18vA) is regsitering ~22V. TP2 (18vB) shows 0V. Is 18vB used on this machine?
At this point I suspect I'm going to need to pull the power driver board and perform continuity checks for the circuits associated with lamp matrix B, looking for an open. Any other suggestions for things I can try before pulling the board?
Your previous advice has gotten me into the neighborhood, now to nail this failure down...
