Well put it back together and powered her up. Got sound, and doors tork. No video, I realized I dont hear the HV coming up. I have heater voltage. I found the HOT is ice cold after a minute of power up. CONV transistor gets luke warm. I checked solder connections at the HO transformer. At least the doors work  |
Don't be embarrassed... I forgot about that switch too, until you said it, and I'm a former Sony factory-authorized tech who owned 2 of those sets. I'm copying that manual for you today, and will have it out after lunch... I've never seen a bad flyback on one of those, nor on the CVM version, so hopefully it's either a cold solder joint or caps, transistors, etc. causing no HV.
