The final check would be to open the R123 connections to recreate the original conditions, replace the R127B, power up and see if the newest R127B gets hot. Purpose: Something else could have happened at the same time that you put in the Horiz Linearity resistor.
Brilliant

First check: nothing has a direct short to ground.

Second check: readings on the 5V4 are dead on.

Final check: that's next.....exactly what I had planned on doing.
