Notes on repairing flat CRT TV setREF.No. :G99076E0−− −
<CONTENTS>
Pay attention to the following notes when repairing flat CRT a TV set.
When repairing a unit, DO NOT LEAVE the degaussing cable disconnected.
Conventional TV sets allow repairing work with a degaussing cable removed.
When repairing a TV set with flat CRT, however, the instruction below must be followed.
The instruction is provided on the service manual also.
Make this known to all staff concerned.

Notes on repairing:
DO NOT turn on the power of a TV set with a flat CRT wh en a degaussing c oil is removed.
Be sure to connect a dummy load when removing a degaussing coil.
Scheme 1: Use another degaussing coil to be connected for repairing.
Scheme 2: Use a 6.8 , 20W resistor, as the jig to be connected to the connector ofΩ
degaussing coil.
Turning on the power of a unit with neither degaussing coil or dummy load results in
opening a fixed resistor R848, which is inserted in parallel to the degaussing coil.
The following shows relations between the models concerned and the cement resistors:−

TV F200056 /2Wcement resistor−Ω
If the resistor opens, noises appear in horizontal directions on screen.
Also pay attentions to information about the flat CRT models to be released in the future.
Component values of the dummy resistors will be announced as occasion arises, and will be
contained in the service manual. Always take notice of the information.

Note :The cement resistor is not installed, if the serial number of unit is not included in−
table above.
If the resistor opens, noises may appear in horizontal directions on screen.
The screen voltage falls down due to an abnormality of the capacitor C901 thereby causing
the screen to become dark.
Take the following countermeasure when this problem is pointed out.

Replace the capacitor C901.

<CONTENTS>
In this set, after successive operations of changing the channel are made using the remote
control, there are times when the remote control becomes ineffective.
Please take the following countermeasures for such sets.
Further, although this condition gets recovered when the AC cord of the main unit is removed
and then inserted again in to the power socket, the same condition occurs again if the above
operation is made again.

A vertical line may appear on TV screen when VCD player or DVD player is connected to
input ter m ina l f or playback .
Same problems rarely happen on other equipment, too.
If such problems are experienced, take countermeasure below.
<COUNTERMEASURE>
Add a filter (when fitting L402, remove jumper wire).
