So I wonder if the TV having an underrated Doorknob capacitor in it might of been what caused the High Voltage Section to go haywire on this TV... 
So now I'm going to try bypassing the doorknob capacitor in this set and just powering the TV straight off of the 1B3GT Tube and let the picture tube do the HV Filtering and see what happens. |
You mean unhooking the doorknob right?... bypass would imply shorting it which is something I'd urge you not to do.
