Sorry everyone. The photos of the Blaupunkt are delayed a bit.

I turned on the set last night to get sone photos of the screen but the set squeeled and shut down.
Another area of the board had arced and carbonised one track to another track.

Huntreds of volts directly onto the gate of the trace thyristor.
Now the set is going again. Next I put on my D.V.D. of test patterns, but discovered that there was no white raster pattern.

Will try again tonight to get the photos.

Wayne.
