Problem now is the coil measures 55ohms it’s not 35 ohms anymore so I guess it’s not supposed to get this hot more heat more ohms.

I have a Motorola book with a schematic note the500vpp pulse negative and positive where do these come and go.

Better picture. I had taken the focus coil out to change the horizontal centering pot but I took a picture of the coil so I wouldn’t put it back wrong so I know by the color of the wires it’s right. I can’t for the life of me find C3-C power supply cap I’m just checking if I maybe hooked it to the wrong source.

https://www.amazon.com/Ceramic-Cooli.../dp/B07VH3F9SQ 1/2 inch in size should fit nicely any replacement coil will be unobtainium, protect what you have while it still works, put a ceramic heat sink on it.

Right now I’m not going to plug this in until I can find C3-C capacitor to see where it goes because according to the Motorola schematic the L42 should only have 500v on it but I’m testing it has around 780v so I need to find where this cap goes maybe I placed it in the wrong place. This extra voltage on the L42 is not good I need to find out why.

Incorrect.
the Motorola schematic is referring to the tie points on the flyback transformer, It's saying + and - 500v PP as in Peak to peak, that is not to be read as DC voltage ref to ground.

stick with the SAMs.
It's less confusing!

That Motorola schematic has some good additional information on it.... It would be cool
to know if those voltages are there, and correct. I was wondering if the focus voltage
is correct, and in the range that is printed on the Sams.... Can you turn the focus
coil and have a range of 4.3KV to 5.2KV ? I know with a HV Probe you will not
see much resolution, but it may tell you if things are OK enough to not
worry about that part of the circuit. Not sure how you would check
that Plus & Minus 500V P-P - I guess you can give it a try
with DVM and see what happens......

Also for L42 getting hot, you know each coil & Cap are a tuned circuit, If there is something
wrong, it may be peaking at a poor point and creating too much power.

All I can think of right now would be to check focus voltage as best you can.
Since the flyback was removed, it may be a good idea to try and see as best you
can that the pins that go where you think they go have the right resistance on
them as best as you can determine.

Take a picture, several pictures, of the flyback wiring, then disconnect all the wires,
measure the resistance of all the pins as you see them using both schematics, and
try and determine if it's wired correctly. You may also want to check resistance
from one isolated winding to another, This confirms no short between windings
and that they are wired correctly inside the transformer.... Since you have 2
Flyback transformers, you can compare between the two.....

My thinking is that since that flyback has pins that are tied to components and then
back to other parts of the flyback, that if a wire is not connected right, then voltage
may be fed to, or from one section out of phase, and causing problems, possibly
even heat on L42.

Does the flyback run hot?

I'm not sure I would switch any wires unless you have real good cause to do so,
you don't want to make anything worse....

With that coil measuring a higher resistance, it may be because it's been hot, and
starting to change because of that.... Or since there are differences on the resistance
measurements of some coils from one schematic to the other, it may just me
differences in their test equipment, or component tolerances.....

Before I had put the old flyback back in I checked resistance on it and it was very close for an old flyback. I do know the ohms are going up on L42 because of heating up. The flyback is cool no heat there. I had went over all the flyback connections several times they are good. I had a new flyback but it turned out bad so I put the old one back in. As for L42 I have to worry about that coil if I can’t get one if it burns I’ll have to check focus voltage.

The focus voltage is perfect and adjustable to sams specs. But the 6hs8 v6 has questionable voltages on 3 and 6 3 should be 2.5v but it’s only .3v and 6 should be 145v but it’s 111v and these pins have the 470pf and the 2.2pf caps these I think are for feedback and it don’t look like it’s doing anything otherwise the agc would probably work and I would have video. I question this because both caps have a wire one to L42 and the other to the focus coil so if these caps are not conducting in the circuit this could be affecting L42 and killing the video it’s all tied together.

You ran the 0v-9v volt sweep at test point A to show that it's not an AGC problem with the video, otherwise you would have seen a reaction on the screen as the voltage was changed at point A, and the gain was forced to change.

You said that you unhooked C59/C60 and there was no change in the heating of L42, so unless perhaps there is a fault in the wires between C59/C60 and the area of the flyback transformer /L42, the problem is still in the area of the FBT.

R13 alters the bias on pin 7 of V6 and R14 alters the bias on pin 6 V6, the balance of the 2 will alter the voltage on pin 3.

What you uncovered the other week, you do have an IF fault, regardless of if AGC is working correctly or not, 3rd IF is working, direct into 2nd IF works, but 1st does not, including L4 .
This has yet to be debugged.

The only one that changes is the noise gate r13 on pin 7

So these need to be closely checked, if they have not been already.

R62/R88/R91/R85/R87/R14

C60 side of R87 should be easy to test, resistance to gnd, 100k ish to 47k ish as r14 is adjusted.

R117 27k 3 watt is cold 6volts on one side and like 5mv on the other a 3 watt resistor don’t stay cold and should have a lot more voltage there then what it has now. And the agc pot does vary and the other resistors I had checked more then once.

The resistors mentioned determine the over all voltage seen on that pin, another factor is if there is video present or not, so don't expect to see EXACTLY what they say there on the SAMS.

What you got was most likely close enough, and once video is working, it will prob come up into what's on the SAMS.
