So after doing a full cap kit, I'm about to attempt my first flyback replacement on a WG25k7184 (I think, the identification sticker is missing). Since I've read that some of these might have had a different flyback, and the one I'm replacing it with looks a bit different (even though it got it through Bob as normal for the K7000 series.), I wanted to check to make sure before I drop it in.
Secondly, is there any specific procedure to go about or keep in mind when replacing the flyback? I see there are two wires connecting to plastic connectors on the neckboard from of the existing flyback. What is usually the best way of connecting up a new one?
Finally, is it even worth doing the flyback replacement now even though the existing flyback doesn't look like it is that bad of a state? The monitor problem which I figured require capping was some vertically rolling shadow on the left side of the screen, but based upon what people have said here, old flybacks have a tendency to go after a full cap kit, so I assumed it would be a good habit to get into.
So, sorry for the noob questions. Thanks, folks.
