All right, I stole some sticks of hot glue from the scale modellers and poured
it onto the thing which looks like this:
,-----------.
| _ |
| | |WARNING|
| | | HIGH |
| | |VOLTAGE|
| | | |
|_| |_______|
It sits on the main board in the monitor section, connected to that dangerous
red wire fit with a suction cup onto the CRT itself.
But it doesn't really look like something which will vibrate or rattle in any
way. I've done some reading up on flybacks, though, and apparently there are
some advanced wirings inside that package.
Then I let it dry and turned it on. Still the same horrible sound. I walked
around the thing for a bit, and it seemed as though the noise emanated from
the black cage containg what is probably the mains transformer.
A recent posting in the ongoing "wobbly PET" thread suggests that some sheet
steel contraption inside the PSU is dissolving and vibrating at mains
frequency. Could this be the case here?
