Safety Instructions - Resolder Notice
1
Safety regulations require that during a repair:
• the set should be connected to the mains via an isolating transformer
• safety components, indicated by the symbol:
should be replaced by components identical to the original ones
• when replacing the CRT, safety goggles must be worn
2
Safety regulations require that after a repair the set must be returned in its original condition. In
particular, attention should be paid to the following points:
Note:
This resoldering is advised to prevent bad connections due to metal fatigue in solder joints, and
is therefore only necessary for television sets older than 2 years.
• As a strict precaution, we advise you to resolder the solder joints through which the horizontal
deflection current is flowing, in particular:
- All pins of the line output transformer (LOT)
- flyback capacitor(s)
- S-correction capacitor(s)
- line output transistor
- pins of the connector with wires to the deflection coil
- other components through which the deflection current flows
• Resolder points are marked by a white circle on the bottom of the CBA.
• The wire trees and EHT cable should be routed correctly and fixed with the mounted cable
clamps.
• The insulation of the mains lead should be checked for external damage.
• The mains lead strain relief should be checked for its function in order to avoid touching the
CRT, hot components or heat sinks.
• The electrical DC resistance between the mains plug and the secondary side should be checked
(only for sets which have a mains isolated power supply).
This check can be done as follows:
- unplug the mains cord and connect a wire between the two pins of the mains plug
- set the mains switch to the on position (keep the mains cord unplugged!)
- measure the resistance value between the pins of the mains plug and the metal shielding of
the tuner or the aerial connection on the set. The reading should be between 4.5 Megohm and
12 Megohm.
- switch off the TV and remove the wire between the two pins of the mains plug
• The cabinet should be checked for defects to avoid touching of any inner parts by the customer.

Service Adjustment Notes:
REQUIRED TOOLS FOR SERVICING
Isolation Transformer
Multimeter
Oscilloscope
High Voltage (100:1) Oscilloscope Probe
Sencore VG91 Universal Video Generator
Caution: The J8 chassis incorporates a "hot" ground system. Always use a separate isolation
transformer when applying power to the exposed chassis.
Unless Otherwise Specified:
1. All service adjustments are "hot" voltagewise. For maximum safety, ensure the use of properly
insulated tools.
2. Refer to the J8 Main Chassis Printed Circuit Board for location of test points and adjustable
components.
3. Grid Locations (Ex.: D-3) next to the reference numbers for components refer to the Main Chassis
Printed Circuit Board.
Focus Adjustment
1. Tune the set to a local or cable station.
2. Adjust the Focus Control (located on the upper part of the flyback transformer) for best picture details
at high light conditions.
Degaussing the Television
1. Position the television so that the screen faces the direction it will be facing when in use.
2. Ensure the set is turned off.
3. Move a degaussing coil in a circular motion slowly around the sides and front of the set.
4. Continue this motion while withdrawing the degaussing coil at least six feet from the television, and
then disconnect the degaussing coil from its power source.
Service mode
Introduction
The service mode is a combined Service Default Mode (SDM) and Service Alignment Mode (SAM). This
service mode is Called SDAM. When the television is in SDAM, all normal features (such as volume
control and direct channel access) are available. In service mode there will be an "S" displayed (in green)
at the top right of the screen. All other Service OSD’s will also be in green.
Error buffer
Error codes will indicate failures in the television.
A unique error code is available for:
• activated protection
• failing I2C device
• general I2C error
• RAM failure (e.g. internal RAM of microprocessor)
Page 30
Other error codes are:
• Video Chip start-up failure
The last five errors, stored in the NVM, are shown in the service menu. This is called the error buffer.
An error code will be added to the buffer if it differs from the last error detected.
If errors occur simultaneously, and the codes for these errors differ from the errors currently on screen,
the display will be updated to reflect this change.
The error that is found last is displayed on the left. The error code to the right should be used to solve a
multiple error fault. If an intermittent fault occurs refer to the stored error code.
Example:
Suppose the display shows: 7 5 2 0 0
In this case, the last error detected was a Stereo I2C error.
A seven (7) appears at the 1st position (on the left), and pushes the previous error(s) detected one space
to the right.
The following error codes have been defined:
Note: I2C =(SCL/SDA)
(*) General I2C error means: no I2C device is responding to the particular I2C bus.
Possible causes:
SCL Short circuit to GND, SDA Short Circuit to GND, SCL Short Circuit to SDA, SDA Open Circuit
(at uP pin), SCL Open Circuit (at uP pin)
Cause and Effect
In case a failure identified by an error code automatically results in other error codes (cause and effect),
only the error code of the MAIN failure will be displayed. Example: In case of a failure of the I2C bus
(CAUSE), the error code for a „general I2C failure“ will be displayed. The error codes for the single
devices (EFFECT) won’t be displayed.
NVM replacement or Defective NVM
After replacing a NVM (or with a defective/no NVM) default settings will be used that enable the set to start
up and that allow access to the Service „SDAM“ Mode.
Service unfriendly modes
In the service modes, a number of modes/features are ignored since they interfere with diagnosing or
repairing a set. These are „service unfriendly modes.“
Page 31
„Ignoring“ means that the event that is triggered is not executed, the setting remains unchanged.
ways:
(Example: Timer OFF: 8:00 PM; the set will not switch OFF in service mode at 8.00PM, but the setting will
remain).
These modes are:
• Blue mute.
• Auto switch off (when there is no ident signal).
• Automatic user menu time-out (menu switches back/OFF automatically) except for Surf menu.

Convergence and Purity Adjustments
Notes:
1. The following adjustments were performed with a Sencore VG91 Universal Video Generator.
2. Set the VG91 Generator as follows: STD TV Ch. 3, RF-IF Range set to HI, RF-IF Level set to NORMAL
(1), Video Pattern = Raster, R-G-B raster controls OFF, Mode Switch set to L+R, Audio Frequency set
to 300Hz, and 0 Pilot (max. CCW).
3. Connect the RF output of the generator to the Television Antenna Input, and adjust the VG91 level to
remove any snow from the raster.
Pre-Convergence Procedure
Note: The degaussing procedure should be performed prior to this adjustment.
1. Place the multi-pole Purity and Convergence Assembly with the 2-Y pole purity rings directly in the
gap between the G2 and G3 (focus) grids as
2. Enter the Service Default Alignment Mode (SDAM) in either of the following two ways:
a. Press the following key sequence on the remote control transmitter while the set is in Standby
mode: 0-6-2-5-9-6-Status (Do not let the sequence time-out between entries)
b. Short service pin 0239 (on the CBA) to ground and switch power-on.
3. Apply a center cross or crosshatch pattern to the antenna/cable input terminal.
4. From the SDAM menu, use the Menu Up/Down buttons to highlight CO (Color Cut-off).
5. Use the Menu Right button to enter the CO sub menu.
6. Using the Menu Up/Down buttons select G (green).
7. Using the Menu Left button set green to minimum.
8. Loosen the yoke clamp screw, pull the yoke back, and remove the three yoke wedges.
9. Slide the yoke all the way forward so that it rests against the bell of the CRT.
10. Tighten the yoke clamp screw so that the yoke does not drop away from the bell of the CRT.
11. Slowly spread, and if necessary, rotate the 2-Y pole purity rings so that the red and blue lines are at
least parallel and preferably coincide at the 6:00 and 12:00 positions
12. Proceed to the Color Purity Adjustment.

Color Purity Adjustment
1. Enter the Service Default Alignment Mode (SDAM) in either of the following two ways:
a. Press the following key sequence on the remote control transmitter while the set is in Standby
mode: 0-6-2-5-9-6-Status (Do not let the sequence time-out between entries)
b. Short service pin 0239 (on the CBA) to ground and switch power-on.
2. Connect a solid white pattern signal to the antenna/cable input terminal.
3. Use the Menu Up/Down buttons to highlight CO (The DR menu can also be used)4. Use the Menu Right button to enter the CO sub menu.
5. Use the Menu Up/Down buttons to select Blue, and use the Menu Left button to set Blue to minimum.
6. Use the Menu Up/Down buttons to select Red, and use the Menu Right button to set Red to maximum.
7. Slowly spread the 2-X pole purity rings to center the red portion of the screen, leaving the same
amount of green on one side of the screen as blue on the other side.
8. Tighten the yoke clamp screw slightly so that the yoke may be moved with some friction.
9. Proceed to the Static Center Convergence Adjustment.
Static Center Convergence Adjustment
1. Apply a center cross or crosshatch pattern to the antenna/cable input terminal and observe the screen
to ensure that the yoke is not tilted. If necessary, rotate the yoke to obtain a level raster.
2. Use the Menu Up/Down buttons to highlight CO (Cut-Off), and use the Menu Right button to enter the
CO sub menu.
3. Use the Menu Right button to set blue to maximum.

4. Slowly spread, and if necessary, rotate the 4-pole magnetic rings to converge red and blue lines at the
center of the screen.
5. Use the Menu Up/Down buttons to select G (Green), and use the Menu Right button to set Green to
maximum.
6. Slowly spread, and if necessary, rotate the 6-pole magnetic rings to converge red/blue on green lines
at the center of the screen.
7. Repeat steps three and five for optimum performance.
8. Proceed to the Dynamic Edge Convergence Adjustment.
Dynamic Edge Convergence Adjustment
Note: To secure the correct position of the deflection yoke, three rubber wedges are used. They are
ultimately to be placed as shown in
1. Apply a crosshatch pattern to the antenna/cable input terminal.
2. Use the Menu Up/Down buttons to select G (Green), and use the Menu Left button to set Green to
minimum.
3. Tilt the yoke up and down to converge the red and blue vertical lines at the 6:00 and 12:00 positions
and the red and blue horizontal lines at the 3:00 and 9:00 positions
correct position has been found, place a rubber wedge between the yoke and the CRT. If the yoke is
tilted up, place wedge one as shown in Figure 9a; if it is tilted down, place wedge one as shown in
Figure 10a.
4. Tilt the yoke to the left and right to find the point of best possible convergence of the red and blue lines
at the edges, top and bottom of the screen as
located, place wedges two and three as shown in Figure 9b or Figure 10b.
5. Remove wedge one and place it in the final position as shown in
6. Use the Menu Up/Down buttons to select Green, and use the Menu Right button to set Green to
maximum.
7. Proceed to the White Balance Setup.
