That's good to know and is basically what I was thinking.
So it definitely means that more than likely my problem lies with some bad paper caps in the TV that have shorted to ground more than likely.
Probably more than likely one of the paper caps that I have yet to replace.
Which I have already replaced almost half the capacitors in the set already, I have about 23 more capacitors to replace in this set yet (that includes some of the electrolytics that I haven't replaced yet in the set).
