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.

Handling of the optical pick-up
The laser diode in the optical pick-up may suffer electrical breakdown because of potential static electricity from clothing and your body. The following method is recommended to prevent damage:
1. Place a conductive sheet on the work bench. You can use the black sheet that is used to wrap repair parts.
2. Place the set on the conductive sheet to ground the chassis to the sheet.
3. Place your hands on the conductive sheet to give them the same ground as the sheet.
4. Remove the optical pick-up block.
5. Perform work on top of the conductive sheet. Be careful not to touch the unit with your clothes or any other static objects.
6. Short the short terminal on the PCB in the pick-up assembly before you lift or remove the pick-up assembly.
7. After replacing the pick-up assembly, open the short terminal on the PCB
