Got the Sylvania Halolite up and running late last night. After changing the power transformer, filters, and paper capacitors, I found it wasn't getting any high voltage to the crt. Found a .0022 cap in the horz width circuit that was shorted out. After replacing, the HV came back and made a pretty decent picture considering i haven't made any more adjustments since turning it on. Of course, the cap was in a really tight spot to get to. Seems the culprit is always in the worst possible place! Actually, I had skipped changing this one when replacing the rest because it was in such a tight spot. Live and learn! For now on, start with capacitors that are the hardest to get to!
In a few days, i'll run it for a several hours watching it to see if anything else goes out. Then I'll start on the cabinet.
Here's a scene from today's episode of General Hospital.
