Look for an electrolytic cap on the order of 47 uf, 250 volts located somewhere around the relay. Several months ago, I rescued an '89 Sony from the salvation army that had a buzzing relay and would not turn on. One new 47 uf cap fixed the problem.

On the degaussing issue, resolder the degaussing thermistor. Very common fault on '80's and '90's era Sony's.
