But that cap goes from a pin on the vertical output tube to the damper and that cap doesnt seem to have much to do with any vertical or sync circuitry. Should I replace that cap? all of the tubes are new ones that I replaced the old bad ones with so I am not sure where to go from here!  |
Are you talking about C61, which is connected from the cathode(pin 3) of the damper to ground? If you melted into it with your soldering iron, it should be replaced. That cap filters your boost voltage, which supply's voltage to the plate circuit of both the vertical and horizontal oscillators, as well as the screen of the ACG amp. It could also have something to do with you low high voltage. Sams says you should have 415 volts DC on pin 3 of the damper.
