I NEED to clarify some more confusion....
I'm going to start at the begining...
1)...Does this STILL happen ??..
When I disconnect the connector C703 (200v and H1) the sound works normal without shutdown and no picture.
Yes or no ...
When 200v is disconnected system runs without shutdown.
2)...
I have even tried to remove all the cathode input resistors but no use.
No use which way ???
Does the set STILL shutdown?? YES
3)...
No changes were done by that time and in fact i was tapping around the tube and tried to burn cathode shorts with 5v input. That was a magic.
Makes little or no sense ...
How do you burn out a short in a CRT with
5 VOLTS ?????
What results did you get when you tapped the tube (CRT neck ???) or ???....
IGNORE THIS, as this was my own testing and seems nothing came out of it.
I'm going to download a manual so we both can be on the same page...
This will take some time to do as I'm on slooooww dial-up...
I intend to be back later today or tomorrow for sure....
Later...Ron.M....
