The diode damper probably will be the largest cased diode near the flyback, connected at least to some pin of it, sometimes in parallel with HO transistor, and other side (cathode) generally is ground on simple TV's (if is separate, like John said).
Of course, for some TV's, other or others diodes can be associated to primary winding, but is more common on newer TV's (like supply for RGB video output). So is good to check diodes nearby the flyback to be sure.
Another potential part suspect can be the pulse capacitor, the one that tune the flyback pulse, and is rated at least with 1600V (some nF), also near the flyback, and probably at same line with HO transistor. Polypropilene on newer TV''s, and perhaps something-with-oil on older TV's. Normally this fails open, but to be sure, is good to check.
