Hi fellow techs, Is it possible for the picture tube to short out the video luminance buffer, Q901 in the CTC166/167 chassis family? I replaced Q901 and it lasted a few minutes and then the good picture blinked and went back to bright with retrace lines and the picture faintly in the background. I have replaced these before and had no problems.
