Like othere said before--just wrap that base up....withsome electrical tape....till you have the chassis workng good.
I have NOT had the best last few months here...my sister is now in a mental hospital...for the last 3 months now....and so on...BUT..my kidneys ARE getting BETTTER !!

Nice to hear you!
The power transformer was in short in all its coils. When I connected the first time the tv set, it had the power switch burnt, so I did a bridge on it. The tv set was totally in short circuit. So I disassembled the transformer, inside the metallic black box, it was completely burnt. All windings was without insulation and the AT winding opened in a lot of points and melted coil on coil. Probably some 5U4GB had gone in short (maybe an electrolytic capacitor) and the transformer too. There isn't any fuse on the primary of the transformer...
