With a Multimeter( in resistant measuring position) check the four Diodes(IN4004 or IN4007) near the Transformer. A good diode will show low resistance in one way and very high resistance in the other way.
I had experienced the same circumstances. And I found all the four diodes were short. Replacing the four diodes came good. When replacing take care the direction of diodes remains the same.
