Motorola Quasar Vertical Issue

[mcmlxv]

OK. No HV.

Just before the loss of raster when the picture was going crazy, I noticed a low hum coming from the area of the power supply. I removed the back of the set and placed my hand on both the power transformer and the filter cans: they were all roasting hot. I couldn't keep my hand on the transformer for more than a few seconds. What could be going on?

All the transistors on the horizontal board test fine. While testing them, I noticed a few of the those gold ERO caps on the board, and 3 more ERO caps housed in white and blue plastic rectangular housings. Would failure of some or all of these caps cause loss of HV on their own? They'll get replaced soon.

I'm leaning towards a problem with the filter caps, but I'm unsure how to rule out that issue.

Thank you in advance for any advice.
