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.

CD ADJUSTMENT
CHECKING THE GRATING AFTER CHANGING THE PICKUP UNIT
Cautions on adjustments
> In this product the single voltage (3.3V) is used for the regulator. The reference voltage is the REF O1 (1.65V) instead of the GND.  If you should mistakenly short the REFO1 with the GND during adjustment, accurate voltage will not be obtained, and the servo’s mis-operation will apply excessive shock to the pickup. To avoid such problems:
a. Do not mix up the REFO1 with the GND when connecting the (-) probe of measuring instruments.
Especially on an oscilloscope, avoid connecting the (-) probe for CH1 to the GND.
b. In many cases, measuring instruments have the same potential as that for the (-) probe. Be sure to set the measuring instruments to the floating state.
c. If you have mistakenly connected the REFO1 to the GND, turn off the regulator or the power immediately.
Before mounting and removing filters or leads for adjustment, be sure to turn off the regulator.
> For stable circuit operation, keep the mechanism operating for about one minute or more after the regulator is turned on.
> In the test mode, any software protections will not work. Avoid applying any mechanical or electrical shock to the mechanism during adjustment.
> The RFI and RFO signals with a wide frequency range are easy to oscillate. When observing the signals, insert a resistor of 1k ohms in series.
> The load and eject operation is not guarantied with the mechanism upside down. If the mechanism is blocked due to mistaken eject operation, reset the product or turn off and on the ACC to restore it.
Test mode
This mode is used to adjust the CD mechanism module.
> To enter the test mode.
While pressing the 4 and 6 keys at the same time, reset.
> To exit from the test mode.
Turn off the ACC and back up.
Notes:  a. During ejection, do not press any other keys than the EJECT key until the loaded disc is ejected.
b. If you have pressed the (=>) key or (<=) key during focus search, turn off the power immediately to protect the actuator from damage caused by the lens stuck.
c. For the TR jump modes except 100TR, the track jump operation will continue even if the key is released.
d. For the CRG move and 100TR jump modes, the tracking loop will be closed at the same time when the key is released.
e. When the power is turned off and on, the jump mode is reset to the single TR (91), the RF amp gain is set to 0dB, and the auto-adjustment values are reset to the default settings.

Error Messages
Error is displayed with number for Error cause when CD is inoperative or stops with Error during operation.
The purpose is to reduce nonsense calls from users as well as to assist all related analysis and repair for defects at service station.
Basic Display Method
1) When CSMOD (CD mode area for system) is SERRORM, Error code will be written in DMIN (minutes area for display), DSEC (seconds area for display). The same data shall be written in DMIN and DSEC. DTNO is blank as usual.
2) Display Example of Head Unit
The following is about LCD display ability. xx is Error number.
Note: Error doesn’t display in mechanism only. (CD off causes mechanism off)
If TOC can’t be read, error wouldn’t occur, but mechanism still continues its operation.  The upper digits of error code is mainly classified by 3 kinds as follows:
1x: Setup related error, 3x: Search related error, Ax: Other errors
