I use a low ohm meter (Kelvin), it's very good at
tracking down the nearest point of the short on the
board.
You may want to look at capacitors. Especially
tantalums, they short very nicely many times leaving
nothing but ash.


Currently the only diagnostic tools at my immediate disposal are

Fluke 177 DMM, a Tek 2236 oscope and a usb/PC based all purpose
logic anal/spectrum anal/oscope

i am hopeing these will be sufficient to solve / track this
fault(s)
if low ohm meter is not terribly expensive then i'll try to get
one if it helps more than my current tools
