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.

The contents are set to factory default settings.
 ROM & RAM check
ROM executes the sum check, and RAM executes the matching test.
The result will be notified with the number of short sounds of the buzzer as well as by printing the ROM & RAM check list.  Number of short sounds of buzzer
0 àNo error
1à ROM error
2 à RAM error (32Kbyte)
Aging mode
If any document is first present, copying will be executed sheet by sheet.
If no document is present, the check pattern will be printed sheet by sheet. This operation will be executed at a rate of one sheet per 5 minutes, and will be ended at a total of 10 sheets.
Panel key test
This mode is used to check whether each key operates properly or not.
Press the key on the operation panel, and the key will be displayed on the display. Therefore, press all keys. At this time, finally press the STOP key.  When the STOP key is pressed, the keys, which are not judged as “pressed”, will be printed on the result list.   LED part of the contact image sensor (CIS) is kept on during the term from when "START" of the panel test mode to end with the STOP key.
  • Check pattern
This mode is used to check the state of the printing head. It is ended with the following pattern printed on one printing sheet.
  1. Longitudinal stripe 2 Approx. 30 mm.  2 Black dots and 2 white dots are repeatedly progressed on one line.
  2. Full black Approx. 30 mm.
Signal send mode
