From my repair notes for the CS2610R;
Check the solder joints on IC3A01
Check for (formerly) yellow glue that has cooked and become brown and conductive - this will cause tuner and vertical problems on similar Mitsu's.
A lot of Mitsubishi problems can be summed up as bad solder/solder starvation. We saw a great many intermittent problems in sets that were bounced around in military (Navy town I'm in) moves - a quick swipe with some 63/37 and a hot soldering iron fixed most. After the Sonys, Mitsubishis and JVCs, along came the RCA CTC185/187 sets and the later Thomson Chinese sets and their Pb free solder problems....
Dontcha just hate crappy quality?
Cheers,
