A friend has asked that I do a cap kit on his WG19K4900. But after seeing the picture he gets, Im thinking it needs more work than a cap kit. Have any of you seen this before?

vertical collapse won't be fixed by a cap kit

reflow the solder to the big white resistors in the back right corner of the chassis and the vertical transistors before you do the cap kit

very common 4900 problem
 
Thanks Dokert, Im going to be making a 2 hour trip to do this work. Is there anything you would recommend I take along other than the cap kit? I'll reflow the solder, but would like to be prepared as much as possible.
 
I can make a hat... a brooch... a pterodactyl....


Bring a spare monitor... could be caps... could be vertical deflection transistors... could be the vertical oscillator.... could be a blown yoke... better safe than sorry on long trips.
