John,

The most obvious is to begin looking critically at your soldering.  
Things that worked the last time it was tried and now do not work 
usually add up to a bad or intermittent connection.  Check the front 
panel board over carefully, and examine pin 1 of each IC, the round 
solder pad at the pin 1 location is often skipped and later found 
unsoldered.
