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.

1.Bad status in signal receiving
2.Poor signal
3.Check if there are failures with the electrical connector or the antenna.
4.Check if the antenna is properly connected.
Fringe in picture
1.Check if the antenna is correctly oriented.
2. Maybe there is electric wave reflected from hilltop or building.
Picture is interfered by stripe shaped bright spots
1.Possibly due to interference from automobile, train, high voltage transmission line, neon lamp etc.
2.Maybe there is interference between antenna and power supply line. Please try to separate them in a longer distance.
3.Maybe the shielded-layer of signal wire is not connected properly to the connector.
There appear streaks or light color on the screen
Check if interfered by other equipment and if interfered possibly by the equipment like transmitting antenna, non professional radio station and cellular phone.
Unable to switch the power on
Check to see if the power plug has been inserted properly into the socket.
No picture and sound
1.Check to see if the power supply of liquid crystal TV has been switched on. ( as can be indicated by the red LED at the front of the TV set)
2.See if it’s receiving the signal that is transmitted from other source than the station
3. Check if it’s connected to the wrong terminal or if the input mode is correct.
4.Check if the signal cable connection between video frequency source and the liquid crystal TV set is correct.
Deterioration of color phase or color ton
Check if all the picture setups have been corrected
Screen position or size is not proper
Check is the screen position and size is correctly set up
Picture is twisted and deformed
Check to see if the picture-frame ratio is properly set up.
Picture color changed or colorless
Check the “Component” or “RGB” settings of the liquid crystal TV set and make proper adjustment according to the signal types.
Picture too bright and there is distortion in the brightest area
1.Check if the contrast setting is too high.
2.Possibly the output quality of DVD broadcaster is set too high.
3. It maybe also due to improper terminal connection of the video frequency signal in a certain position of the system.

WORKING 
RF signal produces composite color television signal through TUNER201, the signal together with AV1/SVHS(SVHS priority) and AV2 etc. are sent to U29 VPC3230D to decode and do switching selection. In addition to decode the selected video signal, part of the selected video signal is also sent to AV terminal and 21 line decoder U32 Z86229 which is exclusive to decode CCD/V-CHIP to decode. After decoded by U32, the signal will be sent back to U29 in the form of R G B and FB, then it will be added to the decoded picture and then it will be sent to U13 FL12310 in the form of ITU-R656 signal format of 8BIT to do line-by-line process. Send two ways YPRPB signal to U30 MST9883 through selection by N2 PI5V330 in order to do the A/D conversion. After this, the signal will be converted into YUV signal of 24BIT, send it to FLI2310 also.

After a series of procedure such as matrix, chroma and tint etc. by FL12310, the two ways signal will be converted into RGB of 24bit, then send it to the main processing chip U12 JAG-ASM. send RGB signal it to the main processing chip U12 at the same time. There has another signal which should be sent to U12 together with he above two kinds of signal that is: RGB signal of 24BIT produced by DV1 through U15 TFP403/501. Do the picture format processing for the three kinds of signal in U12. Firstly do the A/D conversion for RGB signal of VGA, then do the switching selection together with the other two kinds of signal. And then they will be converted into 1024*768 format through digital display processing such as OSD and GAMMA correction etc. output it in the form of 24BIT RGB signal. Send it to LVDS convertor U31 DS90C383A, then it will be converted into signal format which can be accepted by LCD screen namely 3 low-voltage differential signal and 1 clock signal, finally send it to LCD screen to do the picture display PWM of U12 can also be used to control the brightness of back light-source. Send SIF (the second IF) outputted by tuner to audio processor NA01 MSP3420; send YPRPB and audio signal of DVI to NA01 through switching selection by U34 HEF4052; Send AV1/SVHS, AV2 and audio signal of VGA to NA01 also. Firstly SIF will be done the switching selection together with another four ways of audio signal, finally volume control and sound effect processing will be done. Output left-right sound channel signal R/L. one will be sent to SRS sound field processor NA03 M62494 to do SRS processing and finally amplified by NA03 and NA04 TPA3008D2 to drive the speaker, one will be used to drive the headphone through NA02 TLE2142 and the last part will be outputted as R/L of AV OUT
