I tried to test the diode, but to be honest I don't know how to test, since it has 3 pins (two diodes?), I tried to test from two end leads to center with the diode test on my DVM. I got about 1.4V in one direction and nothing when reversing the test leads, this worked for both sides of the diode. When checking resistance, i got open no matter how i configure the leads. I tried to freeze spary the diode just to see if anything happend, and nothing happened.

The Picture is like this as soon as I turn on the set and stays they way for the five minutes, which is the longest time I have had the set on.

Thanks for all the help,
Max M.

Try checking your phase detector diode. Should be a black rectangular box with 3 pins inline. Does the picture "slip" and start moving sideways?
