I looked at that tv again. I disconnected the flyback from the tripler. I turned it back on. The arcing in the crt neck stopped and the transister didnt get hot so the tripler must be bad. I also saw the carona from the flyback lead so it must be good. What is the cost of a new tripler and is this set worth spending the money on. Would a used tripler work or is that a part that is better off being new. It was free.
