If the trace is gone, you're probably looking at a bad fly back supply or high frequency oscillator for the high voltage power supply.
On a related note, when I was recently looking for a network rack, I responded to a CL ad from a guy who literally had a garage full of these, many with the angled cart and optional modules. He used to "collect" them, but has since discovered that there is no market for them and the size and weight makes them nearly impossible to sell online. Don't know what I would do with one myself - he practically tried to give me one...
