The NCR SCSI chip - UI12 (53C80) - has been known to fail, twice in SE/30's I have owned. It would be worth checking its solder joints with a microscope but changing it out - if you can find a replacement - requires hot air soldering equipment that I don't have access to any longer. Capacitor leakage is usually visible as transparent contamination a centimeter or two around the capacitors. If it isn't visible with a little magnification it's probably not your problem. -- --> There are 10 kinds of people: those who understand binary, and those who don't <-- -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
