I have seen bad flybacks in every Thomson chassis after the 177.

When I found out that the unit powers up with this connector unplugged, I reattached the connector and turned the unit back on and had a great picture for about 10 minutes. Now, it will only power up with the connector unplugged. By seeing a picture on this set I doubt that the yoke is the problem. I changed the 2.2mfd @ 200v cap in the yoke return circuit but it didn't help.
