Well the CXA1477as failure seems to have fixed the stretched vertical
problem and that is a known symptom/failure.

Relay clicking on/off .... >>>MIGHT<<< be due to the other common failure
that I've consistantly seen (and hard to verify with a scope). The
convergence amps STK 392-010 (or STK 392-110) have been known to cause
shutdown. Could try freeze spray. I've seen the red amp short 99% of the
time so I'd try that first. I don't think removing the convergence yoke
connections will help identify the cause, I think it will still shutdown
with those disconnected. I've had both problems occur separately, and in
conjunction with each other.

I think the amps "flatline" and can blow the - 16v Supply fuse, so you may
want to check the 3.15 amp fuses and see if one looks stressed.
