I tested the voltages on the three CRT boards.... and provided I did it

I only read approx 70V - 82V(once warmed up) dc on each one of the CRT
circuit boards, Service manual says it should be 200V

The screen voltage read around 776 give or take a few volts, there was
nothing on G2 Voltage found in the service manual, I am guessing that
screen is G2 voltage. And I could not find out what it should be in the
schematic, it just listed it as screen.

Looks like the the +200V is way off....
Have to figure out where to go from here now.



Yeah Screen = G2, IIRC it's a few thousand volts on most sets.


Trace the 200V back to wherever it comes from, might be as simple as a resistor that's gone high.
