There's a rectifier diode connected across a couple of pins on the output IC - check it for leakage. Sometimes they measure good but are bad. Use a fast diode to replace it.

The vertical out IC was was shorted, which also took out the supply diode and it's limiting resistor. The 100uf charge pump cap was also changed for good measure. Here's the problem... Now it has 2/3 vertical raster with a bight white line in the middle!!! Any ideas or personal experieces would be appreciated.
