Evening all, looking for a flyback for a zenith console. Unsure of the model, but attached is the chassis number. Willing to pay asking price and shipping. Any help is appreciated. Set is very nice, not worth cannibalizing. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20231102/e3f08eb44d42fe0700b0de91f3d1360b.jpg

Some flybacks from old TV's have a code printed somewhere; is good to remove it to check.
With the codes (flyback, chassis or both), try Moyer site https://www.moyerelectronics.com/ , perhaps they have the part.

On the FBT there is a fiber board with focus & centering parts.
Part # is there, format is S-#####. Post that & I can look it up
& check for subs. It was a common one.
On these the focus sticks go bad & cook some resistors. Also be SURE the
the damper & HV reg tube are the right pair per layout chart.
IIRC the new OEM also comes with a new HV rect socket, a nice touch !

Sams Photofact set number 1157, folder number 2 gives 2 different numbers for flybacks in your chassis. S-86950 crosses to a Thordarson FLY-408. S-86348 crosses to a Thordarson FLY-478. I don't know what the differences are, or how to determine which number you need, other than finding the "S" number on the original.

Neither FBT is listed in the 1978 Zenith parts catalog. Very rare Zenith
discos parts, its less than 10 yrs. Gotta check the ## on the FBT or double
check the ## in OEM manual & maybe supplements.

s-86950 is the correct one, Thordarson FLY-408 . If anyone knows where to source it I'm all ears
