If the yoke is open or shorted it will greatly reduce the HV and throw off everything else in the horizontal section...Ever pull the H yoke leads on a CTC-15 and power it up?..I have.
Check your yoke like tolooz sayz. That magnet wire is coated in lacquer or some such translucent insulator and you'll need to scrape, melt, or dissolve it off before you can solder it...A short jumper if a section burned off will be fine...Just don't make it longer than it needs to be and don't place it where it could arc to other things.

It could be that pin 9 was being used as a terminal/tie point for other things in the horizontal osc or that it shorted to another pin...Sometimes if the osc is tuned close to the point where it screams adding a small bit of load to the circuit from a meter can push it over the edge in to the scream zone.
