Hardware test routines are chapter 3-3 IIRC.
When you have distortion it can be everything like the converters, the clock, any analog output components like OP amps or smaller parts like resistors and caps failure...
When the unit passes the hardware test routines without any failure,- then you have a case for a service center I fear.
You get dropouts and scratching from worn out pots but no continuous distortion.
