Maybe 3 ,but first you will most probably have to rebuild the SMPS.

Yes change the Blue or Grey box caps in and around the HOT.
That's if its got them as you have not given Model or Chassis
Number
so we are guessing.

Oops sorry,

model: F31226ES
chassis: CTC169AU

how many caps are we talkin about? And by 'around the hot' are you
talkin about the real dangerous ones (if not properly discharged)
around where the cord connects?[/quote:46f5c9d941]


You don`t make sence. Why would he need to rebuild the smps ? All he
most likely need to do is replace the blue caps and the diode near
the Horizontal output like the other fellows was talking about.
Thats if the flyback is good. He said he put sometype of goop on it
at one point in time and what was the reason for doing so ? This
flyback could also be his problem. So please let us know why was the
reason for coatinng the flyback ?

Makes perfect sense if you service the 169 chassis regularly. Anyone who
does should know to test the caps on the regulator controller and the
coupling cap to the chopper, as well as about a dozen other caps throughout
the set. They are common enough failures that someone who does not have the
right equipment to test them should just replace them if it has never been
done before.

Depending on the version, one should also inspect carefully for the
"chocolate drop" problem, check the caps in the audio amp, check caps in the
PIP module, and check for CRT coolant leakage and coolant contamination.

well its pretty obvious that you have not repaired many 169,s.
