As far as chassis problems; I've seen loose and/or burned module connectors and I think this chassis used one of those 4 lead paper in oil safety caps in the HV circuit that Magnavox used in most of it's color sets during the '70's and early '80's. If it shorts, it will trip the CB. If it blows open and breaks it's interlock feature, you won't have HV. If it opens and the interlock fails to break, the HV will skyrocket and the CRT will be ruined. The last Magnavox set that I had (T809) with a shorted safety cap ended up getting a regular HV sprague orange drop cap in it's place.
