If you have a shorted HO Transistor, its easy to tell. Just set your multimeter on "diode test", put black probe on chassis and red on the (121-831) HOT case (the collector), it should read open but if you get the beep, its probably shorted. reversing the leads will read the damper diode, usually OK.
Never saw a fly go on these, but the "22-5001? white critical cap fails - HOT shorts" always the issues I saw. just my 2c
We'll help you fix and keep it.
Minor, inexpensive repairs will keep yours alive indefinetly!
Like Bryan said, we has parts. just find which one is bad.

Yes, it does have the black slate top! What a great piece of furniture if nothing else.
I attempting to study and understand your and others directions for testing as I learn more about the language, numbers, circuit, etc. Still a bit over my head at this point but I'm trying.
