Turns out the cable from the battery to the IO board was a little loose
and kept arcing. Enough gunk had built up that it wasn't making
contact anymore. Of course, this cable is as deeply embedded in the
system as is possible and is the absolute last thing you can possibly
remove from the chassis. Fortunately Sun had the service manual
available. Voyagers have an exceedingly odd construction.
Thanks for the suggestions, though.
