First, I popped out the 5U4 rectifier and power it up. All the tubes lit up and I get what I expected on the secondary.

The flyback and yoke resistances check out OK too.


Uh-oh! Bad vertical output autotransformer
I was hoping I could find a break near the output lead and repair it. Nope.


Uh-oh! Bad vertical blocking oscillator transformer

The new transformers on the right just arrived in the mail and measure good.
