The vertical output transistor, or a component in that circuit has gone out. Often an electrolytic capicator in this circuit will fail causing this problem. Sometimes you will have catastrophic failures which will take out the transistor, cap, and resistors in that circuit. But none are expensive parts really. But it takes an experienced hand to replace/test them.
