Keith, I used to trace everything down to component level, and don't see why not to today. I am retired, so my time cost nothing. I just don't have much time to spare, what with the work provided by SWMBO, and all that I store up myself. Still working on my Cagiva Alazzurra 650, and that takes priority.
However, back to this Technika.
Looked at it again today whilst my pal visited (another retired TV man) and found more faulty components.
R444,5,6,7,8 and 9 all O/C. Replaced those and still dead. I decided to remove the associated transformer (TR900) and found the primary winding also O/C. I suppose if I had studied the circuit more, I would have spotted it sooner.
So, does anybody have one? It is marked 30062467, SMP-C2264. Maybe a spare faulty board to save time removing it. As long as the winding 5-6 is intact (no pin 4).
One problem with this is that various components on the circuit simply don't exist on the board.
