So I'm thinking my best plan of attack is to use my multimeter to start testing individual resistors and capacitors. It'll take some time, but hopefully that'll give me a better picture of what failed.
I know my main electrolytic is fine (I actually swapped in a spare to be safe) so it's a matter of checking the standard caps and resistors.
A quick question, since I haven't gone this in depth before: Do I need to desolder one lead of each cap and resistor before I check it, or can I just turn the power off and start running tests?
