REPAIRING AND NOT THROWING AWAY

Richtige Fernseher haben Röhren!

Richtige Fernseher haben Röhren!

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.

KONKA KDT143AST HOW TO ENTER SERVICE MODE – ADJUSTMENTS - COLOR TELEVISION RECEIVER

Konka KDT143AST how to enter service mode – adjustments - Color Television Receiver

ALIGNMENT PROCEDURES
1. Use an Isolation Transformer when performing any service on this chassis.
2. Never disconnect any leads while receiver is in operation.
3. Disconnect all power before attempting any repairs.
4. Do not short any position of the circuit while the power is on.
5. For safety reasons, replace components any with identical replacement parts (SEE PARTS LIST).
6. Before alignment, warm up the TV for at least 30 minutes and demagnetize the CRT with an external degaussing coil.
7. When removing a PCB or related component, after unfastening or changing a wire, be sure to put the wire back in its original position.
8. Inferior silicon grease can damage IC's and transistors. When replacing IC's and transistors, use only specified silicon grease. Remove all old silicon when applying new silicon.
9. Before removing the anode cap, discharge electricity because it contains high voltage.
Service Flow Chart
Power supply
Check input voltage > check voltage of C910 anode > check Pin 4 of N901(17v) > check N901 > check output voltage of T901 secondary coil > check voltage of N931,N933 Pin 3(5.0v) and N932 Pin3 (9.0V) > check voltage of N103 Pin 3,15,45(5v) and Pin25,54 (3.3v)
Audio circuit
check power supply of audio power amplify circuit(21V) > check input audio signal of audio power amplifier circuit > check waveform of XS203 Pin1 
Horizontal circuit 
Check voltage of C960 anode 108V > check waveform of V401 Base > check waveform of V402 Collector > check output voltage of T402 coil > check waveform of T402 Pin 8.
Vertical circuit:
check voltage of C963 anode +12V ,C964 anode –12V > check waveform of N103 Pin 34 Pin35 > checkwaveform of N440 Pin 1 Pin7 > check waveform of N440 Pin 5.
UOC circuit:
check voltage of N103 Pin 7 (5v) and Pin32 (0v) > check Pin6 (5v) > check waveform of N103 Pin31.
1. Follow the pointed test steps and choose the right test equipment to conduct adjustment, otherwise good effect of the unit could not be obtained. Pointed bias voltage value should be ensured during test to get satisfied test result.
2. To adjust the chassis, before installing, you should write mother chip’s data into the memory N104 that being installed into this chassis and no any data except this test manual listed are promised to be modified.
3. Let the unit warm up at least 30 minutes and demagnetize the CRT and cabinet with degaussing coil before testing.
