Most likely a bad cap, wavy picture often caused by unstable B+ which
is usually a cap failure.
When working on a monitor too many people spend too much time trying to
diagnose a fault. STEP1 Have you fitted a cap kit to your monitor? If
the answer is no then replace the caps before doing any testing /
diagnosing or replacing anything else. 50% of monitor faults are caused
by bad caps, so get them replaced before looking anywhere for answers.
If you have an MTC900 then the fault you describe is often caused by
radial cap on the neck board.
I personally have replaced loads of mtc900/mtc9000 lopts and not one of
them has caused a wavy pic when dying.
