Dazzlevision. I have previously changed those 3 capacitors . I normally check them as I change them . The S correction on 625 was open circuit.
I just double checked again I didn’t make any mistake.
Going back to the HT voltage ..
Ht1 reading is about 4 volts over ,again the same with HT2.
But here is possibly the problem. HT3 is 173 volt and it should be 215 volt.
Having said that my manual must be an early one as it shows R135 as 1.5K and as I mentioned earlier mine has a 1.7K section. Maybe I should try reducing it abit and see what happens. Andy
