To get the damper red plating, you would almost have to have drive on the HO tube. It still doesn't hurt to scope the drive on the HO. There must be a problem in the boost circuit.
It's been ages since I had to trouble shoot this circuit.

Sounds like a hard short-to-ground somewhere on the cathode side of the damper.
