Thanks for the reply. I will have to try that. I started doing some comparisons with the pictures I had posted of the set working when I had first repaired it and noticed that not only has the horizontal gotten narrower but but the vertical is narrower as well. both the horizontal and vertical seem to be at the right ratio to one another but the overall picture is slightly smaller although centered pretty close on composite input but shifted to the left when the tuner is on a blank station where as it took up the full width before, it centers pretty well when tuned to a signal. I also noticed that the snow on the tuner starts out at normal brightness when first turned on but continues to darken until barely visible after a while and does not brighten when i switch to an input and back again. I am starting to wonder what the voltages coming off of the secondarys look like. I suppose they could be high or low. I suppose that changing that capacitor in the horizontal may correct these voltages if they are off?
On a side note are there any recommended places I could scan and upload the service manual I have? I know there are places that take service manuals for HiFi equipment but I am unsure about TVs.
