Your flyback is going
It's a transformer that zips the voltage up to some 10,000 or so
volts.

You can if you can solder replace the flyback - BUT BE CAREFULL
This is a job that has to be done with no power on.  You must
also short the picture tube (there is a special way - and if
you have never done it I recommend you don't do it).

The bottom line ... If it were mine - I'd buy a new one.

Although.....   It could be loose wire - but unless you have been 
moving the screen a lot (I don't mean turning) then it probably isn't
