Larry what does the 15v supply? If it is part of the vertical circuit I would be looking in that area. Even if it is not part of that area I would check the vertical section.

Did RCA make a troubleshooting or training manual for the CTC188? The 135 Volts seems OK when it tries to fire up, but the 15V is low, around 10-11V as it fires up. I sure would appreciate some direction on this set. Caps in pwr supply, that I have ckd are ok. Is there any service info on troubleshooting this set out there? If I sound frustrated it is because I am!!!!
