McIntosh no longer runs free clinics for a variety of reasons, one being
that Dave O'Brien retired several years ago and sadly passed away last
year or so.


I'd give all the switches a good cleaning, reseat all connectors and
cards and *just for good measure go over any suspicious solder joint
carefully with RMA flux snd reflow it. Then clean carefully.

There is also a resistor on each driver board which needs to be resoldered..
It's fairly large and is pretty obvious when you see it.

It is probably not a good idea for most people to be reflowing solder
joints unless they have been identified as a problem and that person
has some experience soldering. The rest of your advice may well solve
his problems and are within the capabilities of just about everyone.
