Hey Mr. Ron. Hows your weekend been? mine has been busy busy. well to answer your q's, 1) i misspoke calling it a yoke. i am actually refering to the just above where the crt panel plugs up to the crt at the socket. inside the glass tube about 1/4 of an inch above the socket. 4)as far as the coolant change, i took all 3 crt's out and took out the plugs and drained the nasty fluid out. even the red one was a lil nasty. i didn't think the bacteria would get in them from what i've read on line, but it was nasty also. then i took each apart and cleaned them and reassembled each one sepperatly first blue, green then red. i then refilled each on to the rim of the drain hole, slap full. then plugged each and placed them back on the metal frame inside the chasis. I did take all the ground wires, all the big red wires, all the wires that plugged in to the focus thing, and all the wires that conected the crt panels. By the crt wires, i mean the wires that connected the crt panels to each other and the set of wires that connected the crt panels to the larger boards at bottom of the chasis. i also took the set of 4 big wires from each crt's "yoke" that connected the large circuit board right of center at bottom of chasis a loose. And finally i took the small set of 4 wires from the yoke and connected to the board on the far left on the bottom of the chasis a loose. i didn't know that the crt panel boards would sepperate from the the crts. hind sight being what it is i would have unplugged the panels instead. but in my mind i thought the crt panels had to come out with the crt as one unit. the only way to take out as one unit is to unplug all those wires I know when i first tried to hook up all the wires i had several wrong. and i tried to power up with them wrong. that's when trouble began. i got a online manual now and i have put all wires in appropriate places. last night i checked all diodes, resistors and capacitors with my ohm meter by checking for both continuity and checking the resistance of each. there wher about 10 different components that had neither continuity, nor showed resistance. i'm not even sure if thats even the correct way to check those components, but thats where i am sitting at this point. if thats not the way to check please tell me how because i'm sure i popped some things by criss crossing my wires into the wrong connectors. seems to me if i am write with my component checking that replacing and soldering the "broke" components would really help, if not eleviate the problems. Now are you impressed with my common sense or are you laughing your ass off at my ignorance of the whole situation?????
