Yeah, last TV I worked on was a '70s Zenith, so I'm all too familiar with the standard cautions. Getting zapped with the high voltage really sucks, don't wanna do that again.

I've already located the vertical output section and the IC (I love the labels on the board, makes things so much easier), but I'm just gonna pull the entire board out and work on any dodgy joints I find, since it sounds like the factory did a shitty job on a lot of stuff. Only thing I'm having a little trouble with is getting that large HV lead loose from the horizontal output. Do I take it loose from the tube, or should it come off of the big capacitor/transformer thing? And more importantly, how do I keep it from lighting my ass up in doing so?
