Check your degaus. Most sets back then used a thermistor & glowbar.
The thermistor falls apart & the DGS keeps running. All the TV current flows through the coil & globar & you get melt down. On MOST sets you can jump out
the thermistor to test the rest of the set. Newer sets use a different scheme &
some old ones used a relay.
