The *fastest* way to triage one of these video toilets is to take a heat gun and flood the boards with heat for about 5 minutes. Get them good and hot but don't melt anything...

If it starts and stays on, about a 95% probability a lazy (high ESR) electrolytic cap(s) is causing the problem.

We can't spend any real time on these so we need to get in and out and be accurate with our estimate. Heat works wonders.
