HUH?  This is really new set, ATC113 chassis came out last year, based
on CTC203 with number of changes to it.

The 3 strikes and out usually is caused by bad flyback but your works
fine afterwards, I would suspect looking in I2C bus realated stuff
start with I/O & PIP module card.

ATC113 service manual is a MUST.  The signals paths winds back and
forth through this PIP/AV module twice.  I really cussed at it.

Oh, FIRST PLEASE check that small coil on a rod that goes between
horizontal transformer driver and base of the horizontal transistor
(HOT) has glue removed and soldered.  This also causes 3 strikes and
out if just right.  Yes, there was few ATC113s with this glue on this
coil like the CTC203 commonly has on L14401.
