Update on Proscan CTC188,   Have rang flyback, rings 45+ times.  This set is 
one of the most complicated sets I have seen.  Did RCA make a 
troubleshooting or training manual for the CTC188?  The 135 Volts seems OK 
when it tries to fire up, but the 15V is low, around 10-11V as it fires up. 
I sure would appreciate some direction on this set.   Caps in pwr supply, 
that I have ckd are ok.  Is there any service info on troubleshooting this 
set out there?   If I sound frustrated it is because I am!!!!    Thanks
