Discharging Rear Projection TV

[tech2014]

I have a tv projection tv with a convergence problem. I want to replace the IC . Do I need to discharge the flyback since it is on the same board that I need to take out.

If I need to discharge, how do i do it?

You should not have to, If you need to remove the hv lead it should unplug from the hv splitter. Does this have all three leads going into the flyback, just push them down and give them a quarter turn and they should come out, you can then touch that lead to the metal chassis the crts are mounted to just in case but there usually is no charge on them.
