Nice! I haven't had that exact model in quite a few years. Yes, you will need to deoxit all controls and switches. Also, clean the module contacts and resolder the contacts on the modules, if necessary. I think this set is too new; but, double check and make sure it has the orange safety cap. It's right under the HOT heatsink. If you ever find one of these with the white cap; DO NOT power it up until that cap is replaced with the orange one. The white ones will suddenly open and blow the neck off the CRT. I'm sure you have a back ache right about now; but, at least that shows that you have a well made TV.
Right now; I have three 19" CCII's from '76, '78, and '79, a 17" CCII from '77, and a 25" console CCII from '79 that's probably going to get parted out because the cabinet is not in good shape. I've already used a module out of it to fix one of the 19" sets. And, I think I've got a line on a 23" or 25" steel cabinet CCII. Hopefully, that one will work out as I've been wanting to find a steel cabinet Zenith.
