I am working on my 425 right now with a similar issue. Here is another 
schematic

http://audiosystemsgroup.com/TitanPS.pdf


As you can see there is a interlock on the psu case and another 
interlock on the rf deck. In my case I can hear the relay K1 clicking on 
but my traces have been burnt away on the AC board so there is no 240V 
making it to the primary of the transformer. There are some pictures here

Can you hear the relay K1 in the PSU clicking on when you turn on the 
power on the RF deck? The schematic should make things clearer. There 
are some variations between 425 builds but the basic concept is the same 
across the builds.
