I am guessing you do not have a variac, plug and pray is not a good troubleshooting method.
The service manual was a good start, next a good visual inspection then what voltages are there and which voltages are not?
These are the ones that have to be there before power up that I am refering to.
Is the relay good? Is its drive circuit good?
Take your time, be careful, get more experiance, check grounds, check current draw of unit.
