Whoops, I forgot about the 20,000 - 30,000 volt part.
Prob won’t kill you, There’s very low current But it sure will shock you though!!
Don’t touch or come close to anything metal. Especially around the tube.
I always drill a hole in the back case of my tv’s and monitors so i can always revisit the focus knob easily.
I’m a freak about focus and it pisses me off that they hide that knob. I can only imagine how many tv’s are thrown out because of lack of access to a simple adjustment.
Umm. I have NO idea how to go about doing what you suggest. Can you come over for dinner??? and bring your family. And your tools. We can watch TV after dinner (after you work on it that is!!!)
I wonder if that could be it.
