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.

LED BLINKING CODES AND SERVICE MODE 


SELF DIAGNOSTIC 
The identification of errors within the EG1L-L chassis is triggered in one of two ways :- 1: Busy or 2: Device failure to respond to IIC. In the event of one of these situations arising the software will first try to release the bus if busy (Failure to do so will report with a continuous flashing LED) and then communicate with each device in turn to establish if a device is faulty. If a device is found to be faulty the relevant device number will be displayed through the LED (Series of flashes which must be counted).

SONY SERVICE TIPS
SONY KV32TW77
No high voltage
Sony AA-1 chassis. Unit no high voltage or sound. RY602 latched at turn on.
SOLUTION
Inspected the Power oscillator and discovered that it was running and producing 167 volts DC at the input side of RY602, but a <13 volts on the low side. Jumping RY602 restored High voltage. Unit had a bad RY602 relay in the power supply.

SONY KV32XBR37
NO RASTER
KV32XBR37 serial 80139945. Unit has no raster. Has sound, CRT filaments, and high voltage. Led in front is flashing.
SOLUTION
May have a IK failure. When bringing up the G2 the raster will appear with full vertical sweep and a purple screen. Not much green. Tech needs to look at the IK buffer collectors on Q771, Q772, & Q773. Normally with beam current there shall be about 1 volt on each collector. With the CRT Socket removed all collectors must drop to "0" volts. Q771 did not. It was 1.2 volts regardless if the tube was connected or not. Tech needs to short Q771(E&B) and see if the collector will drop. It did not. TV will need a replacement Q771. Replacement cured the symptom.
