Al, resoldered all the pins where it attatches to the 1674 module today when
I replaced
the 120K`s on the 3 crt boards, got a tip today to re-solder the pins on the
top
of the board (filament connections), I`ll try that next timeI get into the
set,
saw a post from Bob Waterman to Mando who has a Zenith projo with a 9-1978
module in
it and that board is almost identical to the 1674, both have daughter board,
both have same fly
and Bob`s 2nd  tip says to paralell a 12K resistor to RX3209 because the
replacement fly`s
intermittently open the 16v winding and kill the video, but I can`t find a
3209 resistor on my board and the tip
failed to say where it was located off the fly, same symptom as mine, loses
video(filaments go out)
after 20-30 minutes, shutting down and turning back on brings the tubes back
up, it may be that the
1679 module calls RX3209 some other number, I`ll have to contact Bob and see
if he knows, Thanks
for the help, Larry E
