Solder joints.

Cold solder joints can be very illusive issues.

As a former EE in the aerospace industry,
I witnessed some failure modes that involved
cold solder joints which appeared to be
nice & shinny but resistive, intermittent or open.

For your situation, I would re-flow the ones
which seem inadequate, then re-test as necessary.

Also, component evaluation, such as discoloration
might be the next step & should also be included
in your diagnosis.

Good luck,

Gerry

pm me as needed.
