Hi

If they are carbon film, I'd look for cracked end terminations. Hopefully the 
color codes are still readable. That should make the replacement process fairly 
easy.

Another possibility - the thermistor bridge probably is / was regulated. If 
it's a zener diode, it may have opened up. That would boost the input voltage 
and increase the effective gain.
