Another tip.
Shorted turns in the power transformer primary can cause this. But thats usually associated with excessive heat or current draw. (depends much on 'how' the short occurs.)
I'd recommend checking the total AC current draw of the set compared with the nameplate. Some transformers are beefy enough to where the heat is not so excessive to raise a red flag.
