Larry,

Check C4105(10m-200v) in 140v reg. B+. Follow printed circuit from pin 3 of
flyback. Have seen this cap short and it causes E-C short on traces of HOT.
Also any part coming off of the C of HOT to ground can cause this short.

                                               Dan Webster
                                               Webster's TV
                                               Shullsburg, Wi.
