When I repaired several drive boards for a friend in February (see below) ;-), one behaved similarly.
If IC28 is working as you write, then check the activity IC28 on pins 1 and 19, if it is not there,
then if I remember correctly, the cause is IC18 or then IC2 and IC5.
I have repaired many of these boards and there has never been a faulty optocouplers or output drivers TD62384 and ADC M62353.
Note, the optocouplers inputs are powered from the CN1 and CN3 connectors.
