Mod has been a great help via pm on a couple of chassis I've had issues with, I just want to get this out there for some feedback and possibly where to source parts (today).
Anyway, I had 2 perfectly working, rebuilt (complete bob kit) g07's. They weren't wide enough for me so I decided to get the bob roberts width cap kit.
Additionally I read where mod had changed the diode and resistor at D507 and R525 for additional improvements in the width of the picture. (horizontal mode)
Long story short I put my new D507 diode in position D504, causing smoke on 2 chassis.
Replaced the parts (d507,d507 and R525) again, on the first chassis that I let run for like 40 seconds, fixed it perfect.
2nd chassis, which I had on for maybe 3 seconds, because of what happened to the first one so I was being cautious,is in vertical collapse. Changed (d504, D507 and R525) on these as well, still vertical collapse.
Everything tests good, in the entire 400 section. I did not pull the transistors at 401 and 402 but I tested them with my simpson analog meter in circuit, same exact readings as the working chassis.
I'm thinking of going and buying another FR401 (I think that's the position) and the two transistors, I have a new set of pots I could change out as well.
Does frys or radio shack have the equivalents I need for FR401 X401, and X402?
or any ideas would be great
