A blown fuse is only a symptom, not the problem. The problem is somewhere else in the unit... From what you're describing here something is keeping your HV down and that could be any number circuits... This type of problem is a challenge even for the best of technicians and not something you're going to resolve with less than several thousand dollars worth of test equipment at hand and one heck of a lot more experience than I've ever seen on this board... No disrespect intended... That said, I would start by testing the regulator circuit. Look for any signs of heat stressed components. Test the HOT for short and check the FBT and splitter. Something in the B+ line is the culprit. But my best advice is take it to a reputable shop and get an estimate before any repairs are done. If you don't understand ask for explanations. If that isn't doing it ask different shop or get a second opinion. Good Luck Bill
