Zenith System 3 CRT help

Hello Zeno,

Yes, this does have the 9-160 HV module. I will look at replacing that cap. I need to see if I have any. If not, I will order as I have to place an order for another project.

Please advise on how to remove the board. I believe I read somewhere that there is a red retainer to remove.

Will the capacitor be enough? The at the bias setting listed in the set-up guide, -52V, I could not get cutoff. But with the bias at -36, no issue. Based on what I've read, given the good emissions, this is due to wear of the center of the cathode material and/or ion poisoning.

Also, I would not use the Rejuvenate function as that is very aggressive according to the manual. My thought was to use the Auto Restore which appears to much gentler by comparison.

Regards,

Bobby
