    No...no...no... CRT capacitance in a TV can retain a dangerous or at least painful charge for days or longer!)

    Peace bd
    the charge tries to spark the TV up and gets used

    The tube is packing up, get a new tv.

    It is possible to be a dry joint but very unlikely, it's most likely the tube itself is colapsing. I give it 2 months max.

    Sorry.
