how about the voltage on the cathode of the damper tube? it should be around 550 V. if not, the low end of the winding on the flyback most likely has shorted turns.

So it seems to me that leaves the two high voltage ceramic caps inside the cage, the yoke and the flyback as culprits  |
i would say that the flyback has a few shorted turns. have you done a "ring" test on the flyback transformer yet?. that can be more revealing than a ohmeter can be.
