Fault found - cracked solder connection on the GND (Ground) connection.
Wish they were all as easy as this one, as the the fault symptoms suggest a problem somewhere in the power supply, or its connections. From a car CD changer. Every time the owner went over a bump, the unit would either switch on, or off.
A little touch of fresh solder with a hot iron - sorted.
