If turning convergence off (midposition), removing all memory blocks and reseating Hdef card doesn't help, maybe it's bad IC202 (TDA8444T) in Hdef card as diagnostic suggest.

I have seen this before, but it was the SMPS that was bad, causing a false H shift error code.

Nothing other than one out of a Cine 9/909. The only parts in the new chassis that is compatible with the older BArcos are the HV section and the video switching/quad decoder boards. Everything else is different.

I can repair it here though.
