PRODUCT SAFETY SERVICING GUIDELINES FOR AUDIO-VIDEO PRODUCTS
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
This manual was prepared for use only by properly trained audio-visual service
technicians.
When servicing this product, under no circumstances should the original
design be modified or altered without permission from Zenith Electronics
Corporation. All components should be replaced only with types identical to
those in the original circuit and their physical location, wiring and lead dress
must conform to original layout upon completion of repairs.
Special components are also used to prevent x-radiation, shock and fire hazard.
These components are indicated by the letter “x” included in their component
designators and are required to maintain safe performance. No deviations are
allowed without prior approval by Zenith Electronics Corporation.
Circuit diagrams may occasionally differ from the actual circuit used. This way,
implementation of the latest safety and performance improvement changes into
the set is not delayed until the new service literature is printed.
Caution: Do not attempt to modify this product in any way. Never perform
customized installations without manufacturer’s approval. Unauthorized
modifications will not only void the warranty, but may lead to property damage
or user injury.
Service work should be performed only after you are thoroughly familiar with
these safety checks and servicing guidelines.
Graphic symbols
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended
to alert the service personnel to important safety information in
the service literature.
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral
triangle is intended to alert the service personnel to the presence
of noninsulated “dangerous voltage” that may be of sufficient
magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock.
The pictorial representation of a fuse and its rating within an
equilateral triangle is intended to convey to the service personnel
the following fuse replacement caution notice:
CAUTION: FOR CONTINUED PROTECTION AGAINST RISK OF FIRE,
REPLACE ALL FUSES WITH THE SAME TYPE AND RATING AS MARKED
NEAR EACH FUSE.
SERVICE INFORMATION
While servicing, use an isolation transformer for protection from AC line shock.
After the original service problem has been corrected, make a check of the
following:
FIRE AND SHOCK HAZARD
1. Be sure that all components are positioned to avoid a possibility of
adjacent component shorts. This is especially important on items transported to and from the repair shop.
2. Verify that all protective devices such as insulators, barriers, covers,
shields, strain reliefs, power supply cords, and other hardware have been
reinstalled per the original design. Be sure that the safety purpose of the
polarized line plug has not been defeated.
3. Soldering must be inspected to discover possible cold solder joints, solder
splashes, or sharp solder points. Be certain to remove all loose foreign
particles.
4. Check for physical evidence of damage or deterioration to parts and components, for frayed leads or damaged insulation (including the AC cord), and
replace if necessary.
5. No lead or component should touch a receiving tube or a resistor rated at
1 watt or more. Lead tension around protruding metal surfaces must be
avoided.
6. After re-assembly of the set, always perform an AC leakage test on all exposed
metallic parts of the cabinet (the channel selector knobs, antenna terminals,
handle and screws) to be sure that set is safe to operate without danger of
electrical shock. DO NOT USE A LINE ISOLATION TRANSFORMER DURING THIS
TEST. Use an AC voltmeter having 5000 ohms per volt or more sensitivity in
the following manner: Connect a 1500 ohm, 10 watt resistor, paralleled by
a .15 mfd 150V AC type capacitor between a known good earth ground
water pipe, conduit, etc.) and the exposed metallic parts, one at a time.
Measure the AC voltage across the combination of 1500 ohm resistor and
.15 mfd capacitor. Reverse the AC plug by using a non-polarized adaptor
and repeat AC voltage measurements for each exposed metallic part. Voltage
measured must not exceed 0.75 volts RMS. This corresponds to 0.5 milliamp
AC. Any value exceeding this limit constitutes a potential shock hazard and
must be corrected immediately.

X-RADIATION
1. Be sure procedures and instructions to all service personnel cover the
subject of x-radiation. The only potential source of x-rays in current TV
receivers is the picture tube. However, this tube does not emit x-rays when
the HV is at the factory-specified level. The proper value is given in the
applicable schematic. Operation at higher voltages may cause a failure of
the picture tube or high-voltage supply and, under certain circumstances
may produce radiation in excess of desirable levels.
2. Only factory-specified CRT anode connectors must be used.
3. It is essential that the service personnel have available an accurate and
reliable high-voltage meter.
4. When the high-voltage circuitry is operating properly, there is no possibility
of an x-radiation problem. Every time a color chassis is serviced, the
brightness should be run up and down while monitoring the high voltage
with a meter, to be certain that the high voltage does not exceed the
specified value and that it is regulating correctly.
5. When troubleshooting and making test measurements in a product with a
problem of excessively high voltage, avoid being unnecessarily close to
the picture tube and the high voltage power supply. Do not operate the
product longer than necessary to locate the cause of excessive voltage.
6. Refer to HV, B+, and shutdown adjustment procedures described in the
appropriate schematics and diagrams (where used).
IMPLOSION
1. All direct view picture tubes are equipped with an integral implosion
protection system; take care to avoid damage during installation.
2. Use only the recommended factory replacement tubes.
TIPS ON PROPER INSTALLATION
1. Never install any receiver in a closed-in recess, cubbyhole, or closely
fitting shelf space over, or close to, a heat duct, or in the path of heated
air flow.
2. Avoid conditions of high humidity such as: outdoor patio installations
where dew is a factor, near steam radiators where steam leakage is a factor,
etc.
3. Avoid placement where draperies may obstruct venting. The customer
should also avoid the use of decorative scarves or other coverings that
might obstruct ventilation.
4. Wall- and shelf-mounted installations using a commercial mounting kit
must follow the factory-approved mounting instructions. A product mounted
to a shelf or platform must retain its original feet (or the equivalent
thickness in spacers) to provide adequate air flow across the bottom. Bolts
or screws used for fasteners must not touch any parts or wiring. Perform
leakage tests on customized installations.
5. Caution customers against mounting a product on a sloping shelf or in a
tilted position, unless the receiver is properly secured.
6. A product on a roll-about cart should be stable in its mounting to the cart.
Caution the customer on the hazards of trying to roll a cart with small
casters across thresholds or deep pile carpets.
7. Caution customers against using a cart or stand that has not been listed
by Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. for use with its specific model of
television receiver or generically approved for use with TVs of the same or
larger screen size.
8. Caution customers against using extension cords. Explain that a forest of
extensions, sprouting from a single outlet, can lead to disastrous
consequences to home and family.
The GA series chassis was developed for Sentry 2, screen
sizes 19" through 27" stereo and mono models. The chassis is a single sided printed circuit board. One board is
used for the 19" and 20" connected sets. A second board
is used on the 25" and 27" isolated sets. During the
manufacturing process, the EAROM is programmed for
any added features. Output jacks will be added to the
board to accommodate the different features: Video/
Audio In, Non MTS Stereo, and MTS Stereo.
The GA series chassis features three IC’s for all signal,
sync and sweep processing. ICX2200 handles all of the
audio/video, sync and sweep drive processing. IC6000
is the microprocessor and IC6001 is the EAROM memory.
The keyboard and IR detector are tied directly to IC6000.
IC2100/2101 handles the vertical sweep.
At turn on, voltages for the vertical and video output
circuit are derived from the sweep circuit.
The GA chassis is comprised of three (3) categories. GA1, GA-2, and GA-3. Each category represents the screen
size and different model feature levels.
The GA-1 chassis had five module variations which are as
follows:
9-1869 (19/20V, Mono) Main Module w/o Jack Assy.
9-1870 (19/20V, Non MTS Stereo) Main Module w/o Jack
Assy.

DISPLAY
The GA Chassis uses three different microcontrollers
(IC6000): 221-01164-01, 221-01164-02, or 22101305-01. When the Factory menu is accessed, the
opening display screen will show the microcontroller on
the top line. It will look as shown in Figure 1 or 2. The
bar at the top indicates the part number of the software
in the set. The bar at the bottom has a date and number.
The date on the left indicates the date the module went
through the factory. The number on the right indicates
the module has been tested.
The first seven menu items 00 through 06 will be the
same for each micro. Items 07 through the end will be
different on each micro.
When Service Menu appears, it will always appear on
third item H Pos. Use SELECT key to toggle through all
of the adjustments.

1164-01/02 MICRO
00 F MODE: (Factory Mode) Use Select key to select
item #00, which is the first item in the Service Menu,
the Factory mode. This item is used by the factory
when the module is being tested. In the field, this
item should always be left “off”. Zero is “Off”!
When the factory mode is Off, only the first seven
items in the Service Menu can be accessed. When the
factory mode is set to 1, all menu items will be available. Also they will appear on the screen one at a
time at the top left of the screen, as shown in Figure
3.
If the factory mode is “On”, a pair of dashes will ap-
pear at the top of the Customer Set Up Menu. On
other menus a number corresponding to the setting
of a high lighted item will be shown. This is a quick
way a technician can tell that the factory mode is on.
Other unusual things also happen when the factory
mode in “On”, for example, the AC power on feature is
always enabled regardless of the setting of “AC On” in
the Service Menu. The set will automatically come On
when AC is applied. In addition, when the factory
mode is “On”, the Service Menu can be accessed on
10 button key boards by pressing simultaneously the
RIGHT ADJ. and CHANNEL UP buttons. On 6 button
keyboards press VOLUME UP and CHANNEL DOWN buttons. Otherwise the hand control must be used to reenter the Service Menu to turn the factory mode off.
The factory mode can also be turned off by adjusting
the setting of the clock, or running the Auto Program feature in the customer Set Up menu.

00 F MODE: (Factory Mode) Use Select key to select
item #00, which is the first item in the Service Menu,
the Factory mode. This item is used by the factory
when the module is being tested. In the field, this
item should always be left “off”. Zero is “Off”!
When the factory mode is Off, only the first seven
items in the Service Menu can be accessed. When the
factory mode is set to 1, all menu items will be available. Also they will appear on the screen one at a
time at the top left of the screen, as shown in Figure
3.
If the factory mode is “On”, a pair of dashes will ap-
pear at the top of the Customer Set Up Menu. On
other menus a number corresponding to the setting
of a high lighted item will be shown. This is a quick
way a technician can tell that the factory mode is on.
Other unusual things also happen when the factory
mode in “On”, for example, the AC power on feature is
always enabled regardless of the setting of “AC On” in
the Service Menu. The set will automatically come On
when AC is applied. In addition, when the factory
mode is “On”, the Service Menu can be accessed on
10 button key boards by pressing simultaneously the
RIGHT ADJ. and CHANNEL UP buttons. On 6 button
keyboards press VOLUME UP and CHANNEL DOWN buttons. Otherwise the hand control must be used to reenter the Service Menu to turn the factory mode off.
The factory mode can also be turned off by adjusting
the setting of the clock, or running the Auto Pro-
gram feature in the customer Set Up menu.

located on the left hand side of the module just to
the left of the Micro IC6000 on 19" and 20" sets. On
the 25" and 27" sets it is on the left edge of the
module. Use the Adjust button to change the level.
Connector 4G9 is located on the left hand side of the
module near the micro.
NOTE: BE CAREFUL!! IF THE WRONG PINS ARE SHORTED,

GENERAL INFORMATION
NOTE: 19" and 20" GA1 chassis is a line connected
chassis. When servicing chassis, use an isolation
transformer to prevent possible shock hazard!!
The 25" and 27" GA2 and GA3 chassis has an
isolated supply.
Servicing the GA is the same as with other single board
chassis. If the set is dead, check the power supply first.
First the standby voltages, then the switched voltages.
If the switched voltages do not appear check the power
“On” circuit.
If the power supply is OK and the set will turn on, then
the horizontal sweep needs to be verified next. Is the
horizontal drive available from the video processor? If
the sweep system does not start-up, sweep derived voltages will not be generated.
If sweep and high voltage is OK and video or audio are
missing, then those circuits and the tuner need to be
analyzed.
If the receiver is working but some feature or accessory
is not working, check the Service Menu.
WARNING: If the power supply is operational and the
set still goes into Shutdown or shuts off, this
means that the vertical sweep or X-ray
protection is being activated by the micro.
Check for vertical pulse at the micro (IC6000)
pin 2, or the HV Shutdown Circuit. The set will
not turn on again unless the micro is reset by
unplugging the AC line cord.
The Vertical CRT Deflection Circuit must work in order to
generate the Vertical (Pulse) Signal, if not, the Vertical
Protection Circuit will be activated by the micro and
the set will shutdown. In case of X-RAY protection activation, check the +130V source first and then the shutdown network. To turn it on again, reset the
microcontroller or unplug the set.
If the sweep and high voltage is OK and video or audio
are missing, then those circuits and the tuner need to
be checked.

HIGH-VOLTAGE AND X-RADIATION PROTECTION
A potential source of X-rays is the picture tube, if the
high-voltage (HV) is out of specification. When the HV
is operating properly, there is no X-radiation. For the
GA chassis family, the HV has no adjustments. A HV shutdown circuit is used to prevent excessive HV and X-ray
emissions.
THEORY OF OPERATION (SHUTDOWN CIRCUIT)
The HV shutdown circuit appears on sheet 4 and sheet 5
of the schematics for 9-1869/71, 9-1789/91 and 91996/97 respectively. The basic HV shutdown circuit is
illustrated below.
This circuit basically monitors the sweep, pulse voltage
derived from the sweep transformer (TX3202 pins 7 & 9
in GA 19/20”; GA1 or TX3204 pins 5 & 6 in GA 25/27”;
GA2 and GA3. This voltage is rectified and applied to a
9.1 V zener diode (DX3003 in GA 19/20”; GA1 or ZDX3004
in GA 25/27”; GA2 & GA3). When the HV reaches its
maximum allowed value (see table below) the zener diode conducts, the voltage on pin 29 of the video processor (ICX2200) increases until it reaches the threshold voltage of 3.5 VDC, and shuts down the TV.
If the shutdown circuit has operated, the microcontroller
will prevent the TV from being turned on again, without
first having to unplug and plug the AC cord to reset the
microcontroller.
TIP:Make a momentary short circuit between the
OUTPUT and GND of the IC6002 (RESET CIRCUIT),
this will reset the microcontroller IC6000.
NOTE: In GA 19/20” or GA1 only, the R3212 is used for
the CRT heater and the shutdown circuit. So if
the video output board is unplugged from the
CRT, the voltage on pin 29 of ICX 2200 will be
increased, and the shut down circuit will activate.
If it is required to test the module without the
CRT or without the video output connected, then
add a load of 9 OHMS 5% 10W WIREWOUND
RESISTOR between pins 9 & 10 of the wireless
socket at the video output board.

HV MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE
Apply signal through the video generator, or tune the
TV color receiver to crosshatch pattern. Connect an accurate HV meter between the picture tube anode and
chassis ground. Access Video Menu and adjust Brightness and Contrast controls for minimum screen luminance.
Wait until the Video Menu or display disappear. Read HV
meter.
The HV maximum value for each chassis is specified in
the following table:
After a module is serviced, access the Service Menu and
check that all items are set properly. When the factory
mode is off only the first seven items in the Service
Menu are available. Place factory mode to 1 to see all
Service Menu adjustments. Be sure the factory mode is
set to 0, which is Off, when the Service Menu is exited.
Also make sure that item 04 LEVEL is set to match the
Level as indicated on the model number sticker on the
back of the set. The Level is changed by placing a short
across pins 3 and 4 of connector 4G9 on the main module. Then using the remote control, bring up the Service
Menu and select item 04. Press the adjust button to
make a change. Be sure to remove the shorting jumper
when the adjustment is completed. Confirm that item
#25 is set correctly to match the set being serviced! If
not, and No Audio condition will arise.When in the Private label mode, the set will only respond to IR code
121. .

PURITY & CONVERGENCE SETUP PROCEDURE
PRELIMINARY SETUP
1. Allow receiver to warm up for 15 to 20 minutes.
2. Degauss receiver.
3. Connect crosshatch generator to the receiver and
“rough in” the static (center) convergence.
Follow Convergence Status.
4. Adjust for best focus.
PURITY ADJUSTMENT
1. Purity tab positioning
Set the 2 pole purity tab together at 3 or 9 o’ clock
positions and the 4 and 6 pole purity tabs together
at 12 of 6 o’ clock positions.
2. Move yoke to maximum forward funnel position.
3. Now switch crosshatch generator to a red field.
4. Pull yoke towards rear of CRT neck centered or until
red raster is displayed.
5. If red raster is not displayed as a pure red field, adjust the 2 pole purity tabs until a pure field is obtained.
CONVERGENCE ADJUSTMENT
1. Release locking assembly
2. Connect crosshatch generator to the receiver and
adjust static (center) convergence as follows:
a.Adjust the 4 pole static control by moving the two
tabs separately to converge red and blue lines horizontally. Move the two tabs together around neck of
CRT in a 45º arc) from the top dead center position
to converge red and blue lines vertically.
b. After the 4 pole control has been adjusted to super-
impose the red and blue lines on top of one another.
Use the 6 pole static adjustment to place converged
red and blue lines over the green line. Move the two
tabs together around neck of CRT (in a 30º arc) from
the top dead center position to move the lines vertically. Adjusting the two tabs separately will move
converged beam to the left or right. Using a cross
hatch generator capable or producing individual fields,
adjust generator to produce a red field. Use purity
tabs to center a red stripe.
6. Check for proper yoke tilt setting.

VERTICAL-TILT WEDGE ADJUSTMENT
The vertical lines at 6 and 12 o’clock are converged by
vertically tilting the yoke and inserting a wedge at the
top of the yoke until it is firmly seated between the CRT
glass and the horizontal coils.
HORIZONTAL-TILT WEDGE ADJUSTMENT
The vertical lines at 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock are converged
by horizontally tilting the yoke and inserting a wedge.
Adjust first at 4 or 8 o’clock, whichever has the larger
space, until the wedge is firmly seated between the CRT
glass and yoke coils. Then, insert the 3rd wedge in the
remaining horizontal tilt position until it is firmly seated
between the CRT glass and yoke coils. Convergence at
3 and 9 o’clock should be maintained during this operation.
When the 3 wedges are firmly installed and positioned
for acceptable convergence, lock the wedges in place by
applying a 2.5 inches long strip of tape across the tabs
of each wedge, firmly against the CRT glass. The CRT
glass surface should be clean and free of dust and other
foreign material.
UNUSUAL TILT CASE
There may be some instances where the picture tube
and yoke will require vertical tilt in the opposite (up)
direction to obtain convergence. In such cases, insert
the vertical tilt wedge at the bottom (6 o’clock) position. Follow through on the horizontal tilt adjustment
by using the 2 and 10 o’clock positions and secure each
wedge with a piece of tape, as described above.
IMPROVING CRT CORNER PURITY
CRTs that display corner purity problems even after following the service procedures can be modified with a
picture correction kit (P/N 949-50). The purity can be
improved by placing a picture-correction magnet (included in the kit) on the CRT funnel. Refer to the following modification steps and illustration to place the
magnet properly. Fully degauss the CRT before installing
correction magnets.
MODIFICATION
1. Place the magnet on the CRT funnel as shown in
the figure displayed below, in the quadrant
exhibiting impurity.
2. Rotate the magnet in place to the position shown
for best purity.
3. Place a piece of 1/2" by 2" long Fiberglass tape
over the magnet to hold it in place.
4. Degauss the CRT once magnet is in place to insure
that the magnet is not over the internal magnet
shield.
NOTE: If the magnet is placed over the internal
magnet shield, any apparent purity correction
will disappear after degaussing. Reposition
the correction magnet off the internal shield
and degauss again.
