Bob, Thanks for the reply...I kind of placed a cap in backwards...replaced and unit is fine... Vertical IC still runs warm, but I can't find any other problems.

Found a few from the supply diode at the fly, right corner to the vert fuse resistor.. Its so erratic ohm test will not find it... SMD's C2103M 220pf/50v pin 2&4 IC2100 C2107M 1000pf/50v pin 5 to ground IC2100... There is a manual I downloaded B25A11.. that you can use for this model..
