Could someone help me identify what this broken connector is called? I have this nonworking cab I finally got all ready to plug in and test and when I went to reinstall the monitor chassis I noticed this. Maybe why it was blowing fuses?

Is there a way to replace just this connector, or will I need a whole new tube / yoke / ?

It is a Zenith G-A63ADG25X with a K7191 chassis. Thanks!

It's just a plastic alignment piece. If you're careful, you can replace your neckboard back over it with no issue, just make sure you line it up correctly.
 
It's hard to see in the picture but there is one pin broken. It's the one that sits by itself in the center of the broken section if that makes sense. Is that one used for alignment or an electrical connection? I'll have to check it when I get home.

That's not your yoke or it's connector.....that's physically the end (refered to as "neck") of your tube. If you truely have a broken pin, the tube is trash.

It looks like all of the pins are there to me. Not all of the positions are polulated on the neck of the tube. A broken or missing pin should not cause fuses to blow.
 
Thanks for the replies, I will look at it to be sure when I get home. If that wouldn't cause it to blow fuses then I will definitely try it out. Thanks again!
