CRT vertical deflection -- bad solder joints?

Is it likely that bad solder joints would cause vertical foldover in a mid-90s CRT television? Yes. The first place to look is the big fat pins that the deflection yoke connector plugs into. Unplug the yoke connector from the main board before reflowing the solder, it can get stuck permanently if you don't. Usually, the hint of bad solder joints is in sensitivity to vibration (give it a whack, it works for a while). Overheated switch transistors and bad coupling capacitors can also kill vertical sweep, and if the screen only has half the vertical sweep range, it could be a push-pull amplifier is now only a push. Or only a pull. |
