Gary; 

Although this is old stuff...Cutting that Cap out of the MTT module
never solved anything for me. 
I believe it had something to do with the 12V line...just another
work-around for RCA. 
Also...I think the "RCA" guys that worked on CTC130's are now in
retirement.;-)

I have RCA yellow sheet special instructions for CTC130. On it it says
if you have MTT001A/2B that you are to cut C675, 100uF@16V out of the
circuit. If you use the module for other chassis besides CTC130, have it 
connected back in. I can scan and send this yellow sheet later. It also
has to do with repeated failure of the HOT. 

Gary 
David, what does CR426 connect to? I can't find it on the schematic for
MTT001A. If it is a glass diode that looks like a zener but isn't a
zener, I'd guess it is a 1N4148.

Eric, CR426...I can find it in the MTT module but can't read the part
number. Part looks like a zener diode, could you please confirm this.

Follow-up: 
Replaced HOT, and R426 horizontal drive +B, resistor value was up by
800ohms. TV pulses ON/OFF when ON" button is pressed, TV comes on for a
brief second as power cord is unplugged. I've replaced C672, C654 and 
C656. 
When I disconnect RED wire on standup board next to VIPUR TV pulses 
ON/OFF. 
What am I missing? What are the start conditions for this chassis to
fire-up? I know nothing about this 25 year old chassis. Thanks in 
advance.

Dead - Shorted HOT 

Yes. 
Dead,5A fuse blown. Fix: Shorted cap C425 (043uf@200V) yoke return I 
think. 
After you get it on, here's some issues you may face: Brightness a bit
exessive,retrace: C122 (30uf@250V) front of flyback. Raster narrow at
sides, slight bow: Q1 on pincushion upright board near rear of chassis.
RCA#146847/2N2222A,checks OK-replace it. Channels 2-6OK, no 7-13. Open
and resolder all stakes inside the MTT001 module. 
Bands of interference (two) slowely moving up thru picture.: Inside the
MTT001A, change C654(100uf/16v),C672(220uf/25V),C656(330uf/10V).
Immediate shut down at turn on:Flyback bad. Vert. retrace at top inch of
screen.All assoc. caps seem to ESR OK. R506(6800ohm/2W) runs hot
normally.Remove,scrape leads and resolder. Left side jailbars:
Workaround: Add a 10uf/250V cap across CRT's PC board's stakes, pos. to
"C6", neg to "Z1".(saves pulling chassis) Excess brightness: C122
(47uf@250) 
Unusual brightness issue: Increase brightness with control,all sudden at
max: R721 (680ohm) increased to 690ohm. Also: Q703 shorts
(#143806/NTE159).HTH.

This TV has a shorted HOT (C1308K), main fuse is blown. Are there any 
common problems besides a bad flyback which could cause this?
