UPDATE: Intermittent Fuse Blow When Philips TV is Plugged Into AC
Hi,
Thanks to Andy & Jason for your feedback.
I replaced the three legged "thermistor" (actually a "posistor") with an RCA
# 207768 "thermistor" and a new 4A delay fuse. So far, no "blow" after
"plug in" several times following a "cool off" period.
In response to another person, the blown fuse(s) was blackened.

1. Pull out the deguassing resistor (white round plastic) 3 leg,
install any 2 pin deguassing that is designed for 4A fuse, I used
either philip's blue ones or RCA termistors that was used in same
modification as well (for ITC008 series).
2. Snip out 2 carbon resistors (both same value, and are in series)
side to side by the flyback, install jumper in it's place.
3. Install modification kit (have to look up part number for this), to
prevent horizontal driver circuit frying. Envidenced by blackened
horizontal driver transformer. Only about 6 dollars per kit.
