Good discussion guys! Now lets have some input on your theories as to the causes of flyback overheating in sets that have HV that is within acceptable limits.

It has been my experience that a transformer does not overheat unless it has an excessive load placed on it, or the transformer has shorted windings.

What do you fellows think? Are you going to point more to a defective flyback with a short or did something place an excessive load and that caused overheating and then a resultant short.

IF it is excessive loading, what was the most likely cause?
