Help!
Since last post, I replaced the incorrect valued cap I'd installed on the horizontal linearity coil.
Since it seems I was using the wrong Sams, I had originally put in a .01 @ 600V cap. Solid lock on horizontal. Now, I replaced the cap (C85) with a .039 @ 1 kV, and I'm back to square one with the horizontal, and being out of lock every time I change the channel.
Also replaced the .018 @ 1 kV damper filter with .02 at same rating. The bumblebee had a huge crack across the back side, which I couldn't see until removed.
Next, replaced the line filter caps (C93 & C94) with the correct stated value of .01, but upped working voltage to 630.
That said, here's my question:
Would changing the horizontal linearity coil BACK to the .01 uF from .039 cause any harm? It had solid sync lock with that cap in it, but it was wrong according to the Sams, so I switched it back in fear of causing damage.

Reason: Brightness and volume seem fine....on another channel. D'oh!
