I changed the cap C541 even tho it checked good no change. This looks like HV retrace to me, when I turn down screen volts on the IHVT the picture does not go dark like I would expect, with screen turned all the way down the picture is still bright. With screen turned all the way down on the IHVT I read 208 vdc on G2 connection on crt board. Sure would appreciate any input on this.

The lines are perfectly strait across almost like vert retrace lines. Once cable is attached you can see approximately 5 lines pic is clear and color is good. All caps in vert section check good and there is absolutely no distortion as I would expect in the top area if this were a vert problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated and could someone tell me how to access the service menu please.
