We ned to pin down the actual circuit it is in. C436,like U1 is little help, as the set uses 4 digit location numbers. Bob Waterman in an old email gave a wonderful example that may clarify: (I kept it for reference) If you were to look in the front pages of a paper service manual, under the general information section, it has the following information regarding the circuit related component numbering system used by Thomson TVs. 1200 series - Wide Band Audio Processing 1400 series - Auxillary Video/Audio Input Hi-Fi Output 1700 series - Stereo Audio Processing 1900 series - Audio Output 2300 series - IF Input/Processing 2700 series - Luminance Processing 2800 series - Chroma Processing 2900 series - D-PIP Processing 3100 series - Instument (System) Control 3200 series - EEPROM 3300 series - On Screen Display 4000 series - AC Input and Raw B+ 4100 series - Regulated B+ and Standby Voltages 4200 series - Degaussing 4300 series - Horizontal Drive 4400 series - Horizontal Output 4500 series - Vertical Deflection 4700 series - Scan Derived Voltages 4800 series - Pincushion Processing 5000 series - Picture Tube Socket 7000 series - Tuner On Board (TOB) Circuits I hope this clarifies this somewhat.
