With not knowing what specific model you are refering to (and mentally seeing your circuit board), I am can only take a guess at what to look for and/or what to try as a "quick check". One question first comes to mind, though. The HOT you replaced: did the original have an internal or external "damper". If external, you should replace this also when you replace the HOT. I found it safer to replace even if it shows as being good since it affects the HOT. 2nd, there might be a shorted capacitor in this circuit. I've even had a bad horiz osc transformer take out HOTs, though usually just causes video problems. And, of course, don't rule out possible cold solder joints. To help rule out the CRT as a possibility, I'd remove the hi-v lead from the CRT before firing up your board after replacement of the HOT (if you desire to replace it again). If not already using one, use a variac (or borrow one if you can) to slowly bring the set's AC up. It could help in finding circuits not operating at their designed voltage and/or signal levels while others are. Probably not much help to your repair, but it might be a starting point??
