Video B+ and high voltage low.
SOLUTION
This one had me baffled for a while! I checked (in
H.V. power supply) C90 I, C905, C902, Q900,
Q901, Q902, Q903, R903, R904, R905, R906,
R907, 2D901 and 2D902. All checked fine!
So I started changing parts (thinking a cap or
transistor was breaking down or leaky under
load). I change all the caps, no help: all the
transistors, no help. I even changed the resis-
tors, no help.
SOLUTION
As it turned out, ZD 902 was regulating but at
about 110v instead of 150v. Replaced 2D902,
everything's fme. I had to replace IC90 I (555
timer) and T900 (flyback) right off the bat so they
were known good. Next time I'll take two minutes
instead of two hours!
