Hi Patrick: I've found in many cases that the problem is related to oxidized electrical connections (connectors, switches, printed circuit connectors, etc.) see: What Goes Wrong http://www.prc68.com/I/HaT.shtml#Wgw
A Multimeter with Ohms and Diode functions, like the Fluke 87, can check many components and has found many things wrong. In circuit transistor testers are faster, see: http://www.prc68.com/I/MTE.shtml#Xistor I have a Huntron Tracker but haven't used it much, see: http://www.prc68.com/I/Huntron.shtml the patents are also linked on that page so you can see how it works.
