I know nothing about Bryston but I thought one of the main selling points was it had 20 year warranty. Why wouldn't it just get sent back to them for repair if this is within the 20 year timeframe?
If it's an original 3B that means built possibly as early as the 1970's. No 20-year warranty relief unless your Time Machine is up and running (mine is broken, in the shed waiting for a rainy day repair, right next to my non-working Mind Reader).
Having said that, Bryston are not the kind of people to leave their customers to fend for themselves. I strongly recommend you ship the unit to them and have them contact you with their recommendations.
I say this for many reasons, (and with a nod to user
werd) but one reason is you don't seem to have a Variac, which would go a long way in helping you troubleshoot this particular issue, as well as adding some (not total) electrical safety margin. Really no-one should be opening up a vintage amplifier (this 3B could be as much as 40 years old) without one, even if it appears to be a working unit.
Finally, the age of the unit is itself an issue, as it would be with any audio component of the era it was manufactured, even if no problems obviously manifest themselves (such as in the working channel), and I once again strongly recommend having Bryston give it a go-over to insure it's in good operating condition for continued use in the future. At a minimum, it costs nothing to send them an eMail.
