On the signal board at front I found a leaking lytic "C602": a 150mfd@16V is this C4602??? I replaced it, cleaned the area darkened from the fluid. I jumpered an open trace underneath. Now it powers up with HV for about 10 seconds, a loud thump from the speakers, and shuts down. I pulled the HV lead out of the flyback, capped it, (thus isolating a possible bad HV focus block). powered it up ,but the same thing happens again, so the block is not at fault. Now where to go...
