The faulty was ridiculously easy to find. A diode had blown on the rectifier and had taken out the NTC thermistor.

I replaced the entire rectifier as the diodes were only a few pence each, put a new fuse in and fired it up. In the picture you can see the three LCD panels getting lit up and recombined in a prism. Note: This was a complete pain in the **** as the PCB was really thick making it hard to suck out all the solder with my student budget de-soldering tool.
