pin 16 is 11.3v in stby
B+ is 143.4
pin 3 is .05v

Seems to be working now.  Changed a couple more caps, I think c4705 (680uF 
35v) is the one that fixed it.  Looks like it is in the H drive circuit, 25v 
supply.  I'll change the caps near the micro that you suggested just to be 
sure, though they don't look leaky.

Thanks, guys.

Leonard, sounds like the run B+ is going too high when the set initially
starts, do
you have a steady 10.5 volts on pin 16 of U14101 in standby? monitor the
standby B+ at cathode of CR4116 (right side of flyback) with a full 120
volts applied,
should be approx. 143 volts, if so, turn set on with meter attatched to
cathode and see if the B+ is going real high,
usually 170-200 volts,  if so pin 3 of U14101 is probably going higher than
.9 volts
which is an indication of shutdown,  check the area around the small blue
crystal to
see if it`s wet (at end of U1001), electrolytic cap next to crystal leaks
and can cause hard start.
I`ve got the print and the training manual if you get stuck, we all know how
many things can
cause this chassis to not start, hth, Larry E
