Be sure to take pictures and do a nice write up on this and your next CC
amp repair.

I don’t buy into the “reflow every joint” approach on cruise amps, as
it’s been my experience this rarely yields results.
What you need to do it find all of the electrolytic capacitors, which
will be probably 8-10 total on the circuit board, and replace them.
You don’t need to strip any coatings, just desolder and resolder,
paying close attention to their polarity (I take a Sharpie and put a
dot on the circuit board next to the + terminal before I remove the
cap from the board.)
The caps will cost you all of maybe $10 from Mouser or one of the
other online electronics supply houses. Half of that cost will be
shipping.
