This VCR was in for service a few weeks ago, SMPS was dead, replaced the following: Q1 - C4418 Q2 - ECG382 D02 - IN4148 C09 - 22uf/16v Then the display was blinking when powered up, found ZD6 leaky, replaced it with 33V/1W zener (I think this is supposed to be a 43V zener?), anyway, ZD6 blows within a minute of VCR being powered up. What could be causing this? What circuit(s) does this supply?
