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.

DENON AVR-2308 - AVR-888

Initialization (Factory Reset) 
AV SURROUND RECEIVER/AMPLIFIER initialization should be performed when the µcom, peripheral parts of µcom, and Digital P.W.B. are replaced.
1. Switch off the unit.
2. Hold the following SPEAKERS-A button and SPEAKERS-B button, and switch on the unit.
3. Check that the entire display is flashing with an interval of about 1 second, and release your fingers from the 2 buttons and the microprocessor will be initialized.
Note: If step 3 does not work, start over from step 1.
# All user settings will be lost and this factory setting will be recovered when this initialization mode. So make sure to memorize your setting for restoring after the initialization.
JIG to use for servicing
When you repair the printing board, you can use the following JIG (Extention cable kit). Please order to Denon Official Service
Distributor in your region if necessary.
00D SPK- 561 EXTENSION UNIT KIT : 1 Set
00D SPK- 562 TUCP CONN. JOINT KIT : 1 Set
CHECK WITH TEST MODE
ucom/DSP Error Display Mode
1. Operation Spec
µcom version display mode:
When the following conditions are satisfied at its starting state, error information is displayed before version information.
Starting method (same as µcom version display):
E3,JP model
While pressing 2 buttons, "STATUS " and "DIMMER ", turn on on/off button.
Then, press "STATUS" button to display the following information on the FL Display.
E2,E2A model
While pressing 2 buttons, "RT " and "PTY ", turn on on/off button.
Then, press "PTY" button to display the following information on the FL Display.
2. Display Order
Error information > Destination information > Main-µcom version information > Sub-µcom version information > DSP version information
3. Display
Any one of the following list is displayed, in the priority of 1,2,3,4
