Very strong red content in the picture, sometimes the fault would clear with the strong
red content fading until the correct greyscale was achieved
After much searching around i found the problem. There was a very small crack in the
solder at RH23, this is a 2K4 surface mounted resistor located at the back of the tube
base. Resoldering both sides of it cured the fault

I was hoping the nvm had become corrupt and turned the red drive down but it was

Vertical failure (common fault)
The reason for the failure is because the yoke is low impedance. The TDA3654Q i.c.
has been designed to handle 12 ohms and over. Heat is the reason it destroys itself, the
best cure is to place a small cpu fan on the heatsink

Philips TV (CP110 Chassis)
Operating fine (good picture, sound and control) but sometimes sharp sounds coming
from the set (not via audio), sounding like the LOPT but more loud, sharp and
variable (15 Khz)
The long coil next to the LOPT was resonating/generating sound (not the LOPT
itself), solved by cleaning the top and putting a bubble of silicone kit on it, and after
temporarily removing the coil from the pcb fixating a ty-wrap strongly around the
bottom increasing the magnet-ferrite contact-pressure and stiffness of plastic support
construction

other color
Replace the 180K feedback resistors in the amplifiers with normal 1/4W metal film
instead of 1/8W, they can become open circuited (in mine both green and red were

Change C22 in the power supply (680uF, 10V). I used a 1000uF, it works great
(Kalle Uddevalla, Sweden)
Sony TV (FE-1 Chassis)
Changes channel or volume adjusts by itself
Check S900/1/2 on pcb H1, alternatively this could be due to failure of IC005
(CD4052BCM-FL63) on pcb A
(Josh)
Akura TV Model: CX11
Appears to be no line drive but if scoped the drive is at very high frequency
Suspect C308 (3.3nF) high stability type
(Jamal)
Panasonic TV Model: TC1400T
Int loss of signals
Check R545 for dry joints
(Anonymous)
Sony TV (FE-1 Chassis)
Set shuts down shortly after start up with standby led flashing 2, 4 or 5 times
Check / replace chip resistors R543 (47Kohms) and R541, R573 and R575 (all
100Kohms)
(Josh)
Grundig TV Model: 8214
Poor linearity / Vertical deflection problems
Check +D voltage on pin 12 of the vertical deflection module. If this voltage is less
then 35V or has ripple replace C628 (3300uF, 50V), also check fuse SI627 (T3,15A).
Sometimes this fuse has resistance causing a voltage drop across it
(Fernando Almeida)
Rca TV Model: CTC166/167
Audio, no video
Change Capacitors C4501 and C4502, in the vertical section
(Anonymous)
Ferguson TV (ICC9 Chassis)
Ew distortion
Check / replace CL42 (4.7uF, 160v), don`t forget to use 105 Celsius type replacement
(Anonymous)
Check the l.o.p transistor Q551 for s/c, overvoltage diode D854 for s/c, R564 / R567
(fusible) for o/c and also check C808 (10uF, 63v) and IC801 (STR54041M) and
locally for dry joints

Vestel TV Model: 11AK19 (11AK19 Chassis)
Procedure to enter service mode
Go to installation menu, then press 4,7,2,5
(Kalle Uddevalla, Sweden)
Vestel TV Model: 6392
Field collapse (no vertical deflection). No sound
Replaced resistor R818 (15k, 1w) which was o/c. This resistor is the limiter for the
33v tuning voltage
(Rui Loureiro - Portugal)
Goodmans TV Model: 1476TS
Set reverts to standby at switch-on
Check 200v line on tube base for short cct. I901 (TDA6103Q) goes s/c
(Jack - Scotland)
Sanyo TV Model: CBP2580
The word "factory" in a red box is permanently displayed on screen and sound volume
goes from 0% to 50% to 100%
Enter service mode, go down to nvm and press volume plus on remote
(Anonymous)
Toshiba TV-Video Combi Model: VTV1402S
Dead, or intermittent start up. No voltage supply to line driver
Check R504 (270k), feed to switching transistor. Goes high or o/c
(R. higton)
Philips TV Model: 14PV163
Reverts to standby from switch on via TV or Video
No 5v rail because FET MTP3055 o/c. (BUZ71 will do nicely)
(Stu - sjs)
Sharp TV Model: 66FW53 (widescreen DA-100 Chassis, 50 and 100Hz series)
E/W fault
Coil L603 (part num RCILP0286BMZZ) had severely burnt up and Q506 E/W driver
2SD2391 (Part num RH-TX0151BMZZ) was short circuit. If you have this fault
check L604 for invisible dry joints, if you don't you may find you still have an E/W
Change the eprom, check that the earthing of the green cable running from tuner is
OK
(Leffe)
Jvc Video Model: HRD720
Noise bar in playback, looks like error in the guides adjustment
The problem is the 3.3uf capacitor in the drum motor. This generates Pg signal errors.
Replace it and give me a smile !
(Walter Rimini)
Ferguson (TX92 Chassis)
After replacing the line output TX the set still appears to be tripping
Try switching the set on with the remote control. The micro seems to remember the
tripping state, the remote control re-setting it

Toshiba Video Model: V709B (Samsung Chassis)
Very slow rewind / fast forward
Center Gear assy u/s, cracks and drags on chassis, same will apply to Samsung and
some Sony machines etc
(Nigel, Trident audio visual)
Goodmans TV Model: W322NS
Procedure to enter sevice mode
Switch off tv, hold in VOL+ button on tv and STANDBY button on remote, switch
back on at mains switch then release buttons, set will then come on in service mode
Adjust with PROG. + - and VOL + - store with yellow button
(Nigel, Trident audio visual)
Sanyo TV Model: CE28WN4B
Procedure to disable protection mode for fault finding
The protection mode can temporarily be disabled to prevent the set going into standby
during fault finding by disconnecting R648 (note: safety procedures must be followed
!!)
(Josh)
Grundig TV Model: M70-1690 (CUC6369 Chassis)
Dead, SI621 (1.6amp) blown apart
Replace SI621 (1.6A), SI601 (2.5A), D620 (B380 C2000/1500) REC, T644
(IRFBC40) mosfet, IC631 (TDA4605-3), C633 (100uF,25v), this was caused by dry
joints on C648
