RCA
F36674ET
CTC197CA

          Set is dead with the exeption that it will click when the power is 
pushed (only one click is heard, no appaent HV flux or degauss). Set came in 
at the end of the day went back with some help tonight as was close to the 
shop to lift it onto the work bench to work on tommrow. Customer had brought 
it by about three months ago with simmilar complaint gave it back as there 
was no indication of fault at that time (ran perfectly for a week) Tried 
tonight and it is out, Will have to see if the AC dries it out overnite, 
(yes AC, this is Arizona highs are still in the 90's, athough there are 2 
tropical storms moving in that might make it rain all week so humidtys are 
starting to rise, might be why it quit). Since alot  of you are up earlier 
with daylight savings time Though it would be a good question to forward so 
I might have a few ideas for the morning. Haven't seen too many CTC197's 
yet......but failures seem to always come in 2's or 3's, Initial impressions 
would be to look at the coils near the HOT or a bad FBT but ideas would be 
appricated..
