ok. I left it alone, I just reworked the lead dress so it looks better and installed a new 50uF lytic by the pot as well. As far as possible bad cap, that shouldn't be a problem at this stage as I replaced all those wax caps back in 2007. For the record, I did test each of the new caps before they get installed. In fact, I specifically remember the brightness not cutting off when I first got the set before I did the recap. The TV had a great picture but little to no control of the brightness. Basically the brightness would go from "normal picture brightness" at fully CCW to "slightly brighter" fully CW. Brightness control tests fine.
I'll have to be on the lookout for out of tolerance resistors as thats basically all it can be at this stage.
