Default Philips TV Repaired with LOPT -> Causes?

Peter Clifton schreef/a écrit/wrote in/dans/in
le/on/op 16/02/2004 :

So I presumed a faulty LOPT. This was confirmed by rudimentary ring testing
on my oscilloscope.


Do LOPTs just fail on their own, or are they usually 'caused' to fail by
another part?


They fail on their own, Peter. Especially in those sets. We replace a
few every week.
The quality of those transformer has dropped dramaticaly.

Sometimes the line output transistor has to be replaced as well and a
little blue capacity, close to that transistor.

Greetz,
