You nailed it Zeno. The thermistor was not only broken, it was gone. For now I twisted the leads together, gave it some solder and cured that.

Thanks for the input on the focus, guys. I'll tackle that as soon as I can figure out where to mount the replacement caps. They're still jumpered in, and the set is sitting on its side till they're put in properly. I haven't figured out a good place to mount them without removing the chassis.
