Nope. T6 is the focus coil and it's mounted on the neck of the Picture tube. L1 is the small transformer(choke) mounted under the chassis as I have it marked.

Dude, take a deep breath and just clip the wire goin' to pin 2.

Now, measure from pin 2 to ground. If infinite resistance (open circuit), tube socket and power xfmr are not suspect. Short is 'downstream'.

I unsoldered the wire and then tested pin 2 and it measured infinite like it should.

So where should I check next?
