Commodore monitor repair info?

[Nebulon]

Does anyone know where I might be able to find a repair manual PDF for a Magnavox Commodore monitor? 

 

In particular, I'm thinking of the Magnavox 8CM515 (AKA the Commodore 1902A).

 

Many eons ago, I watched someone repair this one (it was making a high-pitched noise). While working on it, he said that it was usually the backplane for the flyback transformer. He then placed the monitor on its front, took the rear cover off, and re-soldered 6 or 8 points with high-temperature solder. That same monitor worked fine for another 20 years. He's no longer in my neck of the woods, and I'm looking to have this monitor repaired again (since it started acting up just last week).

 

If anyone has any tips or experience fixing flyback issues on 1080, 1084, or 1902 monitors, please feel free to post your wisdom here. I can then relay that to someone out here who might be able to get it up and running again.

 

Here's a few links showing the type of monitor that I'm thinking of:
