have you checked the b+ and eht ?
b+ should be 170v, I would say eht should be about 26kv
I have attached the schematic, there is a a table of components differences for 29" and 33" so you can check those

Thanks grant ..
Will take a look at this this today to compare these 👍👍 i don’t have a HV probe yet ..

Not checked the b+
Can do that later as well

Found the three caps aroumd the vert deflection ic
IMG_8460.png

Power Regulation: Check the B+ voltage to the deflection circuit (typically aiming for 170V). Faulty voltage regulators can cause the picture size to fluctuate wildly. [1, 3, 4]

The "Big Three" Caps: Check and replace C306, C314, and C308. These capacitors control the vertical sweep linear output. When they begin to dry out, they lose capacity, causing the top or bottom of the screen to shrink or warp before collapsing entirely. [1]

you do have a eht probe?
with the amount of chassis swapping and adapting you are doing you should check the eht, I check and monitor b+ and eht on every repair I do let alone any mods done to chassis. I also check heater voltage when using new batches of flybacks, you need a very high spec multimeter or a bench meter to do this

Will get it later ..

Hv probe — will try to grab one asap 👍

Só ..
It seems it’s the cap at c314
That variates

These caps are the only single cap of it’s type on the chassis and look to be specific values ..

Ai says it’s 16vIMG_8490.jpeg
No mention of diffrent caps here ..

50v c306
35v c308
25v c314

Ai has c314 as a 16v
Só that’s incorrect ?
I cannot tell because i do not understand the markings on this particular cap and it chages across diffrent chasiss…

Hence why I think i may have a 33” vertion ..

I will check more componants

I do have another chassis
I have not ever tried to use this one
Because it seems

To be a sega rally 3 39”
Chassis
IMG_8494.jpeg
Has the 33” sync board
Ends In 201IMG_8496.jpeg


Só question is
Now is the chasiss on my 27” tube a 33” chassis ?

Don't think i've ever seen an LG Philips crt on a WG D9200/D9400 monitor before but it's the correct crt as Grant says, and you can see the original WG sticker with serial number on it. Pretty sure every one i've ever come across have used RCA or Thomson crts whether it's semi-flat/curved or flat.
