and NO. 4B BB (Blue Bias) with ▲ or ▼ key and set each
data to 0 with + or – key.
5. Select NO. 4C RD (Red Drive) and NO. 4E BD (Blue Drive)
with ▲ or ▼ key and set each data to 40 with + or – key.
6. Set NO. 4D GD (Green Drive Reduction) data to 08, NO. 3E
SB (Sub-Brightness) data to 18, NO. 3C SCO (Sub Color)
data to 15, NO. 3D STI (Sub Tint) to 05, and NO. 3F SSH
(Sub Sharpness) data to 00 with ▲ or ▼, and + or – keys.
7. Turn Screen Control (T402) to minimum (fully counterclockwise).
8. Select the Service Menu NO. A9 (No Vertical Sweep)
with ▲ or ▼ key.
9. Advance Screen Control (T402) clockwise to obtain just
visible one color line. If line does not appear, place this

HIGH VOL T AGE CHECK
Note: +B (+130V) Voltage Check and Grayscale Adjustment
must be completed before attempting high voltage
Check.
1. Connect high voltage voltmeter – lead to ground, and
connect + lead to anode of picture tube.
2. Tune receiver to an active channel and confirm TV is
operating properly.
3. Eliminate the beam current by adjusting the contrast
and brightness controls to minimum.
4. Confirm high voltage is within 28.0 KV and 31.1 KV. If
reading is not within range, check horizontal circuit.
No high voltage adjustment is provided on this chassis.
BRIGHTNESS LEVEL ADJUSTMENT
Note: Grayscale, RF AGC, Video Level, and High Voltage Check
must be adjusted before attempting Brightness Level
Adjustment.
1. Connect a color-bar generator to the antenna terminals.
2. Switch the generator to the crosshatch pattern.
3. Reset the picture controls to the Auto levels.
4. Connect voltmeter (high impedance) + lead to terminal
TP51 and – lead to terminal TP50 on main board. Set
voltmeter for 1.5V ~ 3V range.
5. Turn off the receiver and disconnect the AC power cord.
6. While pressing the MENU key, reconnect the AC power
cord. The Service Menu display will now appear.
