    That is the high power circuit for the gas displays. The potentiometer I believe allows you to adjust the output voltage down. Have you adjusted the pot? Be careful that is a high voltage area, the cap’s are likely still charged.

    Side note, no issues on the bottom traces?

    Quoted from pins4u:

    A sudden change to the maximum voltage supplied by the rectifier is NOT going to be adjustment of the pot. Pot twiddling NEVER fixes any problem.
