Are you saying that the heat sink compound shoted the convergence IC's? And that is why you replaced them? Check for an open pico fuse supplying the + and -24v that in some of these also supply the vertical op IC. If these are anything like the sonys you get a deflection failure error code because the set is shutting off before it gets to the horizontal section because the vertical is not firing up.
