Wally,
Call me today & I'll explain it to ya.....Don't want to type a novel !
One thing you will need is a new anode cup as you'll need to remove the old
one to clean all traces of fluid from inside and your old one is not
reusable. Typically there is a hole blown right thru it from the arcing
You can get a replacement one from RCA or use one from a scrapped RCA
flyback. The RCA caps have a distinct round top on them that fits nicely
under the hard plastic cover that goes over the anode cap.
Also , if the original HV Splitter is still in the set (Part # 205064) . I
always change them...cheap enough ($30) & prevents a call back a week after
you fix the set. Only use OEM for this....don't use the generics.
