TECH: Kortek Videomaster monitor failures

<x-flowed>
I have two of these (both a 13" and a 19") that have bad monitor boards. I
have just started looking at them and they both have blown fuses (F602).
Has anyone worked on a lot of these monitors? Is there a specific component
that dies most of the time? What would cause F602 to blow? It looks to me
that it's used on the 160 volt circuit. The 160v comes out of the flyback
so I should be looking for a shorted component on the side of the fuse away
from the flyback, right?

Thanks for any suggestions.
