Mark: Be certain to check the flyback derived source B+ lines for excessive loading or shorts.... shorted diodes, shorted electrolytics, shorted vert defl chip, shorted audio power out chip, open low-ohm resistors, etc, etc, etc, ..... and of course, check the HOT, H driver xstr, and solder connections on the power resistors and transformers including the HDriver xfmr and flyback, and ESR check the primary and secondary electrolytics in the main B+ regulation circuitry. electricitym . .
