Q5A01, Q5A31 can cause excessive width and shutdown, if either fail, suspect a bad T5A31. Had one with a bad transformer that would lose focus then died. Cust did not complain of size changes but it is likely with this circuit. What does the diagnostic say? Is it in HV shutdown or H,V? Coolant is always a good bet on these. Had one with a flaky 12v regulator causing some strange problems.
