What you're missing is a decent HOT replacement. You can get quality generic HOT's, several that will work in that set, and last longer then NTE.

I suspected the yoke but the yoke ranged good. I found two bad caps in the vert ckt, but no other problems. For test I replaced the HOT (D1879) with a NTE2331 and it fired up good for about 5 min. and overheated and shorted out which took out the ac fuse again. What am I missing? I have no print. Is there a way to check this set to keep from blowing parts? Any help will be appreciated' Thanks, Grady Wilson's TV Service Texarkana, Tx. 75501 gomdwil@xxxxxxx ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lost Password: http://www.tech-assist.org and select "Login Problems?".
