Philco 40-140 Field Coil Replacement
#16

Codefox, most of what I have learned was on forums. Yes, I fixed a lot of TVs at Warwick (Sears) after they came off the line. Didn't know crap but when you work on the same chassis it didn't take long. This was while working my way through UCLA and not in anything engineering related. Spent most of career in medical or research electronics. Not fixing, either selling or managing tech support aspects.
I really want the OP to come back and let us help him. I like to see a finish to these types of threads. Not that I can help much but can observe.
Regards, Jerry

Absolutely no one is going to reverse engineer that circuit. Even the iron core is missing.RodB — 10:37 AM
