It needs a capacitor, it's either a .047 or .056 @ 400V. Must get it
from RCA because it's an "AC" capacitor, not a filter or coupling cap. If you keep running the set like this the HOT will fry and you better hope the current limiting works or the power supply might go out too. Also there are a few other caps that need to be chaged in the power supply to keep it healthy. It could also be a shorted PIN transistor but the cap is alot more common. The cap and the other caps installed in this area would run about $200 including a good cleaning and tune up. If you wait until the HOT fries add $50-100 to that. This does not include pickup and delivery. JURB |
