The resistance between the -8V test point and ground (either a test point
labeled ground on the board or the scope case) is 49.7 ohms.
I replaced
one tantalum, C4203, 33uF, with no effect.

doesn't come on. The only control that seems to work is scale illumination,
which makes the screen glow orange when turned up.

I checked the voltages at the test points on the main board A4 as described on
page 4-24, and found all of them to be within spec: +55, +15, +5, and +110,
EXCEPT for the -8, which measures 0.2mV. The power supply wiring diagram at
the back of the manual shows two blue wires from the transformer, going
through a fuse F4501 (desoldered and removed from board, it's good), then
through a rectifier bridge CR4411, which is also good.
