FIRST, dont drop any tv to test for a bad connection, SECOND, Yes you can get seriously injured from high voltage, but it is around 15 to 30 thousand volts not 300 thousand. THIRD., it would be my guess that your flyback has bit the dust, a bad solder joint is possible, but if the tv is not being moved, the board and wires are not gonna move themselves to create a broken connection, yes, heat expands them, but there is no physical movement, a good tv shop can fix this for you, im gonna go out on a limb and say about 40 to 60 for a flyback and somewhere between 40 and 75 for labor depending on where you go.

Sounds like you may have a bad (cratered) solder joint, probably in the power supply or the Horiz. Output section. Try banging the TV around a bit (pick up one corner at a time a couple of inches and drop it). If it will come to life, even for a short time, there's probably your answer. If you really want to - take the back off and look at the solder side of the circuit board, checking all the solder joints - looking first at the larger components, working your way down to the smaller ones. Look especially at components which make lots of heat - large resistors, components mounted on heat sinks, etc.

Unless you know what you are doing (meaning you are an experienced electronic technician), don't fool with the insides of a CRT television. It may be possible to find an old-timer TV repairman who will work on it, but it's probably cheaper to get a new TV (and they are better, too).

Barb Z is right. Just watch out! There is a power supply that can hold about 300,000 volts in side. if you are 1/2 careful it wont hurt you.
