When I was a teenager I fixed one of these with pretty much that exact same fault. Starting up repeatedly, accompanied by a sort of "footsteps" noise from the speaker. The problem was the tripler. I replaced it with one from a Philips G8 chassis which happened to be lying around, sealed the connections with proper EHT silicone goop, and the set lived a long and happy life afterwards.
