How do you know it's a bad IC?

Vertical hold? That went away, decades ago.

That's ok, Michael. Stefan knows what I'm talking about, and he's knows
what he's talking about too.

It's near the big thing with blue and yellow wires. That is on the side
of a thing that looks like a little green round thing but should be black
but if not maybe green also. Trace that thing over by the other thing and
you might see a thing that matches it. If so look to the left of that
thing and underneath another thing. Let me know how it works out for you.
