ctc167c blows H.O.T.'s

Hope you can help guys!
Have an RCA model F25163WN that keeps blowing H.O.T. What can be the
cause other
than a defective flyback?
Thanks,
Tony

I would check the drive-waveforms to the base of the HOT, rise & fall times.
etc,
Of course, faulty clamping diodes in the deflection-circuit can kill it,
such as bad flyback caps, (hor deflection amplitude depends on the L
(flyback primary-inductance) together with C flyback)
A faulty flyback cap could therefore place an excessive collector voltage on
the HOT.

Tell me, will the HOT pass away directly or can you have the set going a
while?
If you're able to keep the set operational a while, I would believe most of
slow base drive waveforms.
Then you could check for fast rising temperature on the HOT.

Good luck,

Stefan

Also check diodes off the flyback, especially the one forward of the flyback.
