If your set has C218, a 10uF 25V bi-polar cap, try it even if it looks ok. Also take a very close look at all the electrolytic caps in the whole set. Last Mits. I worked on, I changed about 25 caps because they were either defintely leaky or I saw a bit of a brown spot on the board under one leg. I changed caps in the video section, deflection, SMPS, CRT board, etc. Gary McCartney McCartney Electronics 7134 Fife Rd, RR 7 Guelph Ontario Canada N1H 6J4 Fax: (519)821-1530 email: gary (at) number63.ca Ttkirkpat@xxxxxxx wrote: > > Here we go, set works fine at turn on.
