Sorry Chris...
your flyback transformer is toasted... this is a known issue in the
tray loaders. Unfortunately it is not cost effective to repair.
Flyback transformers generally are cheap, and with care, relatively
easy repairs. (You're dealing with CRTs, very high voltages) Google
"flyback transformer repair iMac"...this was the third hit: <http://
www.macopz.com/columns/imacrepair/>
Claims it's a $50-$100 repair for a DIY...which at this point, come
to think of it, may not be cost effective, as another fix in this
article , getting an iMac with a dead MB and good CRT and
transplanting the good parts from your system, may be even cheaper.
