HELP needed. Was CRT arcing now Fuzzy Picture

Originally I had arcing flyback problem but this is now fixed. I
removed the flyback, found a little pinhole, filled it and fixed it.

All was okay at 1st but there was a little arcing from metal to right
of flyback at power on and off only. Picture was fine. Turned it on
and off a few times and the picture is no longer fine! - it's really
fuzzy and moving focus controls etc does not help.

I know what was causing the arcing - I forgot to reattch one of the
ground leads from the pcb on the back of the electron gun. Reattaching
this to ground has cured the arcing but now my picture is all fuzzy.
Guess I must have blown something? Any help would be really
appreciated. I can send a picture of the fuzzy screen to anyone
interested.

Thanks,
Paul.
 
The HV module in the flyback assy may have gone defective, or the tube has
been damaged. Try the flyback assy first.

I have ordered a replacement flyback and will try fitting this first.
I should add that the model of the monitor driver board is
Wells-Gardner 25K7191.

Paul.
