Take a bit of care, that blue light is likely High Voltage (19500 volts), it'll sting a bit if it goes into you! It sounds like your HVT is on the way out. Can you take a video and show us to confirm?

It's difficult to judge without seeing it for myself but you may not need a new LOPT. The fact you've got blue light there means that you have high voltage there. It just sounds like high voltage may be getting out where it shouldn't. Now, most of the time this means it's probably bulged and / or cracked and you need a new LOPT, but it could just be a bad anode cap or cable. I have been able to repair a cracked unit before too but I'm not going to be responsible for the consequences if anyone tries that out

Is it possible to get a new HV cable without buying the whole LOPT? If you need a new LOPT then things are going to get more and more fun from now on in. Nosing at Ordynes site the other day i noticed that he's stopped selling them as HR Diemen have stopped making them. He's therefore understandably keeping all his stock for the monitor repairs he does until he can (hopefully) find another supplier. If he can't then that doesn't bode well for the rest of us. I'd considered CRT availability but not LOPTs. Should have done really!
