If you mean that is has ONLY a horizontal line on the screen - no picture 
other than the line - then you've lost vertical deflection.  Some things
to look for (somewhat in order of ease of diagnosis/repair):

1. Disconnected vertical deflection coils (if the yoke has separate h. and
   v. connections).

2. Bad vertical output transistor or tube, or associated component in the
   vertical output circuit.

3. Bad transistor/tube/associated component in v. drive stage (the stage just
   before the v. output.

4. Open or shorted vertical deflection coil in yoke.  (This may be difficult
   to repair in that a complete readjustment of the CRT/yoke assembly will be
   needed if the yoke must be replaced.)

You might be able to get a schematic from the manufacturer; another good
possibility is to check the local electronics supply shops (or even the
public library) for troubleshooting guides/schematics such as the Howard
Sams "Photofacts" series.
