One side of the big square "220" will connect to pin 2 on the regulator. The other side is the regulated output voltage to the rest of the board. This is an inductor, so a continuity test will show continuity through it. It would be interesting to see what the input and output voltage do when it turns itself off. It looks like pin 5, on/off is tied to the ground plane, so it shouldn't be turned off accidentally. The solder joints I can see look decent enough. Have you done a firmware update on them recently? Is there an option to load an older firmware version? If you ever find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck.
