RCA CTC 146 TV Power Supply Problem?

I have an RCA CTC 146 TV to Repair, with a Power Supply Problem.When the Set is switched on, it will play for about 30 Seconds.Then, it switches off and on, with the Relay clicking every time.This goes on for about 20 Minutes.Then, the Set finally comes on, and works fine for several Hours, with no problem.All of the Solder Connections on the Circuit Panel appear to be intact.And, I replaced a Capacitor , [10 uf at 160 Volts], in the Power Supply Area, that appeared to be swollen.No change.And, I couldn't find a Voltage Regulator on the Board.Worst of all, I don't have a Schematic.Is there a Case History on this Chassis ?

    Man I can't even LOOK UP a case history on that chassis anymore....

    Right now the CTC 169 chassis information is OBSOLETE, so that makes your CTC 146 chassis info even MORE OBSOLETE !

    It's nice that it lasted that long though...certainly lasted longer than it's anticipated "service life"

    tremendous answer . one element he didnt element out is that even although rca has been round for a lengthy time period and is a properly time-venerated type maximum of their tvs suck as for as high quality is going.
