Convergence is out and I have to replace the board where the HV regulator and main filter capacitors are located....I think it's called a "sweep board"....I don't want to get shocked or anything....so is there a process of which wires to disconnect first or is it "a piece of cake" and it doesn't matter?...It's a Zenith projection big screen

hey thanks....I had to find a good dealer to service it and found one.....everyone else (department stores) were all $495-$745 bucks for them to work on it and charge 220% just for the parts.....I found a man that runs a repair shop and is certified with Zenith's and he's gonna put in a new sweep board, adjust the convergence grid, and clean the lenses and mirror with pickup and deliveryincluded for $240.....I don't think I could even beat that in terms of time in cost in doing it myself.

To add to the story of "SHOCK", I was working on a 35" RCA and just replaced the flyback and reseated the anode cup. I turned on the set and "forgot" it was on, also forgot if I seated the cup properly so I reseated it once again.... I received a continuous "Zap" of about 35K, from then on I "ALWAYS" check to see if the set was plugged in. Audio was at lowest level and fingers tingled for about a 1/2 hour. One of my employees could not stop laughing, but current isn't high enough to kill unless you have a bad heart. Unless plugged in a B+ cap will discharge quickly when "shorted" by your fingers. (My experience.)
