CTC-7 no high voltage

Hello all!,

Not sure if I am posting in the correct thread... So today I tried to run my CTC-7 with the chassis outside the cabinet. All tubes glow and crt filament lights up but I have no high voltage... I made sure all the cables were plugged in except for the audio which I don't think matters for the set to run. I smell a slight burning smell but no smoke in the high voltage section. I have not done anything to the chassis yet but it was sitting in 85 degree weather (not direct sunlight) for about 2 days. I had a raster and high voltage before I took the chassis out. Could some caps have gone off value while it was sitting? what is the problem here?
