WG K7000

Okay, lets see how good you guys are.  The monitor is a WG K7*** series made 1986  :o .  Anyways, when it is turned on, I get a high pitched squeel from the neck area of the tube.  I am having a had time pin pointing exactly where on the neck.  The first image shows what is on screen.  Basically a horizonal orange/red line.  The link should take you to a really quick video of the squeeling and the messed up picture.  I have performed a capkit on this monitor, and the squeel still persited and no change in picture was noticed. 

Any help would be great guys.  I can get you the exact model number if you need it, I just can't remember it off the top of my head.

Cap c51 is not included in the capkits has been failing alot lately.

Vertical deflection IC sometimes goes bad.

Yoke could be internally arcing.

Okay,  Tantalum C51 I can fix.  But how would I go about diagnosing the IC and the Yoke.  I'm guessing I check the voltage out of the IC, but I do not know which pin.

The manual gives the voltages on all the IC's, transistors, and diodes.

The last K7000 that I had making that kind of noise from the neck area turned out to have a bad tube. Cracked around one of the pins..... also gave off a nice blue light show inside the neck.
Not a technician . . . . just a DIY'er.
