If your 22-5001 caps are white change them, if orange they are OK.
The HOT in the Zeniths are rugged. In most sets a bad cap would
mean instant death to the HOT. The flat chassii NEVER had sets
destroyed by open caps. There are 5 of them IIRC 2 on the FBT
& 3 under the chassis. Early upright chassii also used 5 caps.
If the set is run long term with an open cap or two the focus divider
& CRT socket go bad. You also get a strong crackle on turn on.
If more go you will see an awesome lightning show around the anode
& divider.
Congats on the set. The CRT looks good as new from what I see & the
set is super clean, wish it were mine.............

BTW IIRC you can get at the dial lamps from the front. Uses either
#159 or #259 bulbs, can interchange.
