No I didn't try that. I thought it would cause further damage if the protector circuit was disabled by disconnecting the inputs to it from the LOPTX. There seems to be 3 pins on the LOPTX connected to the protector circuit. Does the protector circuit guard against over voltage from the transformer?

I have an old Sharp CV2133IR TV. The pulse input to the line driver transistor is being pulled down by a low state on the collector of a transistor in a protection circuit. This circuit seems to be connected to a winding on the LOPTR. What could cause the the circuit to operate? Is it likely to be caused by shorted windings on the transformer?
