REPAIRING AND NOT THROWING AWAY

In Brief: On this site you will find pictures and technical information about Service Modes, Circuit Diagrams, Firmware Update procedure, Disassemble procedure, Universal remote control set-up codes, Troubleshooting and more....

If you go into the profession, you will obtain or have access to a variety of tech tips databases HERE IT IS Master Electronics Repair !.

These are an excellent investment where the saying: 'time-is-money' rules. However, to learn, you need to develop a general troubleshooting approach - a logical, methodical, method of narrowing down the problem. A tech tip database might suggest: 'Replace C536' for a particular symptom. This is good advice for a specific problem on one model. However, what you really want to understand is why C536 was the cause and how to pinpoint the culprit in general even if you don't have a service manual or schematic and your tech tip database doesn't have an entry for your sick TV or VCR.

While schematics are nice, you won't always have them or be able to justify the purchase for a one-of repair. Therefore, in many cases, some reverse engineering will be necessary. The time will be well spent since even if you don't see another instance of the same model in your entire lifetime, you will have learned something in the process that can be applied to other equipment problems.
As always, when you get stuck, checking out a tech-tips database may quickly identify your problem and solution.In that case, you can greatly simplify your troubleshooting or at least confirm a diagnosis before ordering parts.

Happy repairing!
Today, the West is headed for the abyss. For the ultimate fate of our disposable society is for that society itself to be disposed of. And this will happen sooner, rather than later.

JBL GTO7001 CAR AUDIO - CIRCUIT DIAGRAM - TROUBLESHOOTING

JBL GTO7001 Car Audio - Circuit Diagram - Troubleshooting

1CHANNEL POWER AMPLIFIER – schematic – exploded view – troubleshooting - JBL GTO7001 Car Audio

Specs:
• 425W RMS x 1 channel @ 4 ohms and ≤1% THD + N*

• 700W RMS x 1 channel @ 2 ohms and ≤1% THD + N*
• THD + N: 0.02% (rated power @ 4 ohms)
• Signal-to-noise ratio: 80dBA  (reference 1W into 4 ohms)*
• Signal-to-noise ratio: 107dBA  (reference rated power into 4 ohms)
• Frequency response: 20Hz – 330Hz (–3dB)
• Max power: 700 watts
* CEA-2006A-compliant.
Power Input Connectors
• +12V: Connect to the positive terminal of the vehicle’s battery. 4 AWG wire is recommended.  Install an appropriate fuse holder and fuse (75A minimum) within 18 inches of the battery. Make sure the wire is not damaged or pinched during installation. Install protective grommets when routing wires through the firewall or other sheet metal.
• GND: Connect to the vehicle’s chassis.
Speaker Output Connectors
• Connect the subwoofer to terminals, observing proper polarity. Either + or – terminal may be used. Minimum total impedance is 2 ohms.
DBO (Dynamic Bass Optimization) Variable Subsonic High-Pass Filter With Variable Boost (Q)
• For woofers in tuned (vented) enclosures, set the Frequency control to a value 10Hz below the enclosure’s resonance (tuned) frequency.
• For woofers in sealed boxes, set the control to any value you prefer between 30Hz and 50Hz.
• Set the Boost control according to your  preference, being careful not to apply enough boost to damage your woofer(s).  A DBO High-Pass Filter Frequency control, variable between 10Hz and 100Hz. B DBO Boost control provides up to  12dB of boost slightly above the high pass filter’s frequency.
Setting Input Level
A Turn Input Level control counterclockwise to 6V (minimim).
B With a dynamic music track playing, turn the head unit’s volume control to the 3/4 position.
C Turn Input Level control clockwise until the bass output is proportionate to the output of the high-frequency speakers, according to your preference.
D Input level is now adjusted correctly.
