I've seen a bunch of that series do that. The guys at Panasonic told me the deguass thermistor passes too much current cold, stressing then eventually killing the fuse. They gave me a new part number which I forgot years ago. I've been using the thermistor RCA used in their CRT sets, but I can't seem to remember the number for that one right offhand. Never had a callback. You can tell it doesn't pass as much current though...the turn-on thump isn't as loud.
Just remembered the RCA number....207768
RCA had the same problem with some of their very last CRT sets. They also said to change the thermistor to that number
