The IFT was arching on mine, Dave. So it was bad. It took out the x-ray detector transistor. NOTE: The schematics are a bit confusing. They show BOTH Q14901, and Q14902 tied directly together. (E-E.B-B,C-C). You only need ONE of these for X-ray protection ckt. On my set it was Q14902 (SMD) that was shorted, but I removed and discarded Q14902, and used the holes that were provided for Q14901, and used the component mounted transistor (147665), it was easier to do it that way, plus I already had the right transistor in stock.
