I have a feeling that when he does that, the horizontal out put will go up
in smoke! Sometimes this relay cycles, because there are no drive pulses
getting to the horizontal and or vertical output stages. There are many
things that can stop the drive pulses.

I got this set in after a storm. There was a black flash burn on the
board across the AC line terminals. When turn on is attempted the
relay clicks about twice every second. I have checked just about every
component on the power supply board. I have replaced the following
components, (Some of which didn't seem bad when comparing them to new
replacements with an ohm meter) but I replaced them anyway:
IC602, (SE135)
R648, (2.2K)
D606, (TF541M)
PH600, (PC123)
IC601, (STRF6626)
I've had this pig almost two months now so it is a total loss as far
as trying to make any money on it but I would at least like to try to
get my parts value out of it and maybe preserve a little dignity. I'm
not really sure how to troubleshoot this clicking relay symptom. Did
I miss something? Can any one help me with any ideas and perhaps a
schematic? Thanks for any assistance with this. Lenny Stein, Barlen

Try putting a jumper across the relay. This will at least allow you
to see what the set does when it's forced on.
