I am almost 100% sure that it is a PSU fault.  The monitor will work
occasionally.  The EHT is coming up.  The PSU control ic is not shutting
down due to overcurrent.  There is an additional bit of circuitry that
controls the 3842 chip.  I think it is for power save.  I am sure that
this is the area where the fault is.
