A failure of the horizontal output transistor or power supply switchmode
transistor will blow a fuse or fusable resistor.
Look for blown fuses and test for open fusable resistors in the power circuits.
If you find one, then test the HOT and/or switchmode transistor for shorts.
Other possibilities: rectifier diodes or main filter capacitor.
While you are at it, check for bad connections - prod the circuit board with an
insulated stick when the problem reoccurs - as these can cause parts to
fail.
