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.

3. Apply a +14V DC to lead of D408.
4. Apply a AGC bias (approx 6.14V) to TP104. Slowly adjust the AGC bias voltage until the waveform is just before saturation

ALIGNMENT STEP (SEE FIG)
1. Adjust T105 (TANK COIL) to obtain maximum amplitude of response at 39.5MHz as in Fig.

VIF ALIGNMENT (TUNER VIF COIL)
A. PREPARATION STEP (SEE FIG)

1. Connect the output of VIF Sweep Generator between tuner test point TP and tuner case with input level of 54dBpV.
2. Connect resistor (100 Ohm) between TP101 and TP102.
3. Connect the vertical input of the Oscilloscope to the TP106 and ground.
4. Apply a +14V DC to lead of D408.
5. Apply a AGC bias (approx 6.14V) to TP104.
B. ALIGNMENT
1. Adjust AGC bias voltage slowly until the waveform is just before saturation.
2. Adjust the vertical gain control of the Oscilloscope until the waveform is 10 division on the screen.
3. Adjust the ferrete core in the tuner until the marker 39.5MHz has maximum amplitude and 35.07MHz has a difference of 1 division as shown in Fig.
