Neil, If the degauss ckt checks OK, relay, thermistor, degauss coil, then check the diodes in the b+ bridge ckt. I had one years ago(tube days)that a leaky diode in the bridge would magnatize the crt. I went so crazy looking for the problem, that I had to stay in the repair business.

Resoldered all connections in degaussing circuit, replaced degaussing relay, plug in, works for hours on in in my shop. Customer takes home, brings right back with color distortion. Recheck circuit. Relay only activates one time while set is plugged in when set is turned on. Other times micro wont activate until set is unplugged then plugged in again. Rapped, Tapped and short of beating the board to death. I can't make it go to discoloration. Anyone have a similar problem like this and what the fix is?
