Sorry man. Somethings like that though to me are worth fixing just for the good memories they carry. I can't give up on some little things, like this tv. I have a hard time just letting it go when I have faith that it's something easy, or the fact that I stubbornly want it to work. But hey we are who we are and sorry man.
rca2000 and zeno;
As for testing the machine. I am getting some gear put together to test it with out the resistor in the circuit. Now I got to have a good day to roll it out side and test it, I think from what I am reading, that approach will tell me a bit more about the issue. I am just hoping that the bleeder was just failed and short circuiting to ground. It would make sense, it just stopped with out warning or any signs of failure...
So I remove ground from the bleeder and get it isolated, get that choke soldered back in and everything cleaned up. Should I just fire it back up. Anything exactly I should be looking for...A picture that's to bright or won't focus/track right? If it fires right up and starts working beautifully where should i start looking for a bleeder. I am not one to take the safety's off a piece of equipment haha.
The bleeder had some numbers on it, don't know if they mean anything to you but I think the picture may help i included. It was a close up of that bleeder in question.

Haha, yeah doesn't take much energy to kill us. When I was learning back at trade school about high volt from the power poles, they showed us a movie montage nightmare of people that got hit by fallen wires...Scary stuff, I have talked with somebody after they got blown across a room from a 3 phase panel that shorted. They were in full ppe and it was no where near 30kV. But amps are equally important for messing people up.
And Zeno, thanks for looking into other T995's. All of you thank you for your help.
