I recently put a new cap kit and flyback in a MTC-9000 that was making a clicking noise and not working. Well, that was not the problem. After turning off the lights I noticed some light flickering from underneath the yoke and also smelled smoke. I removed the yoke to find a black spot on the yoke and tube where it had been arcing. I cleaned off the tube to see if there was a crack or something but there wasn't.
Below is a picture of the black spot on the yoke. So, do I have a bad yoke or is the tube shot? I have never experienced this before.
