Hello

This weekend I had the time to give a try to the TV. I replaced all of the electrolytic capacitors in the vertical section, and the problem got worse. Now the TV set only has a horizontal bright line in the middle of the screen. All of the capacitors that I mounted were checked for capacitance and reformed before use them. I re-mounted the original capacitors and the problem remains unaltered (see the pictures)
I decided not to go on with this adventure and ask for the assistance of the guy who fixes the TV sets in the town. Saddly, he is recovering from Covid-19 right now, so I have to wait for a while. I will let you know when the TV is fixed. Thanks a lot to everyone.
