Breaker on sec of transformer & kills the 143 source. PS is
copy of Zenith with the oil cap
S cap is C702 .00155 mfd 1.5 KV P# EP18X137 Its behind
the HOT & a few inches away.

First checks are
Reset breaker.
Check for @143 VDC at case of HOT
" " " 24 VDC at PGRL5 of the little rectifier ( red wire ) board.
For meter GRD use the CRT grounds.

Burning can be a lot of things. You have to go step by step to narrow things down. Usually the FBT or vert module on these & do it without spending $$$

Ok thanks 👍, I'll get in there and see what I come up with.

Ok thanks 👍, I'll get in there and see what I come up with. Also, when I push the breaker, should it stay all the way in, or does it come back a little bit?

Most sets it comes back a bit. It it was tripped you'll feel/hear a click when you reset it, if it wasn't tripped you'll feel some spring pressure and maybe scraping.
