Nanao MS9-29SU to high B+ voltage after recap - Help!
So I have a MS9 that had an unstable image so I decided to do a full recap. Ordered a capkit and changed every cap carefully noting the values and polarity of both the old and new cap.
Some of the new caps were higher voltage but as I understand that is ok. The Farad values were spot on.
When I powered it on there was only a clicking sound for a second or so and then the chassis turned off. Double and triplechecked all caps and even put the old back in but no success.
I isolated pin 2 of the flyback and put in a lightbulb as a dummy load and now the chassis stays on but B+ is 111volt at the lowest setting of the pot. I'm using 24KHz mode so I only adjust the 24 pot.
What could have gone wrong?

put it onto 15k and then read b+ , should be about 74-76v adjustable

When I put it in 15k mode b+ is 75v and I can adjust it down to 60v but when I take it off the dummy load and connect the flyback it skyrockets up to 130v and shut down. I dont think the flyback is faulty because I get static noise from the tube for a split second before it shuts down.grantspain wrote: ↑November 19th, 2018, 8:09 am put it onto 15k and then read b+ , should be about 74-76v adjustable
Does this make any sense? English is not my native language

check the HOT, there are tons of things that cause ms9 to shutdown- any fault picked up on deflection or psu and they shut down

I assume this is the HOT to the left on the shield? I unsolder it tonight. How do I measure it?grantspain wrote: ↑November 19th, 2018, 4:38 pm check the HOT, there are tons of things that cause ms9 to shutdown- any fault picked up on deflection or psu and they shut down
BTW Thank you very much for taking the time to help me here Grant

yes that is it, should read like a diode across 2 pins

When I measure in diode mode I get a reading when touching it like this:grantspain wrote: ↑November 19th, 2018, 5:25 pm yes that is it, should read like a diode across 2 pins
Any other way it read infinite. That should mean that the HOT is working, right?
Edit: I have also replaced the vertical ic (LA7837) and the power transistor or whatever it is called (K1531) for known working ones and still no change.

Crap, back to zero then
Could a broken solder pad lead to this issue? If I broke any while changing capacitors.

yes i expect it is something that you have done, lump of solder across pads, broken pads- something like that

And sure enough it was.grantspain wrote: ↑November 19th, 2018, 10:20 pm yes i expect it is something that you have done, lump of solder across pads, broken pads- something like that
I had placed the bipolar cap in a vacant location right next to where it was supposed to sit... Dumbass!
It was right in front of me the whole time and I could not see it. Lesson learned I suppose
