Common Repairs

The caps in these are known to leak very badly. The entire deflection board should be recapped and the main board caps should at least be visually inspected for signs of sleeve shrinkage, leaking, or bulging. The main can capacitor on the right side of the chassis is usually fine but if it feels excessively hot you should probably replace it.
