SAFETY-RELATED COMPONENT WARNING!!

COMPONENTS IDENTIFIED BY MARK 0 OR DOTTED LINE WITH MARK 0 ON THE SCHEMATIC DIAGRAMS AND IN THE PARTS LIST ARE CRITICAL TO SAFE OPERATION. REPLACE THESE COMPONENTS WITH SONY PARTS WHOSE PART NUMBERS APPEAR AS SHOWN IN THIS MANUAL OR IN SUPPLEMENTS PUBLISHED BY SONY.

SAFETY CHECK-OUT

After correcting the original service problem, perform the following safety checks before releasing the set to the customer.

1. Check the area of your repair for unsoldered or poorly-soldered connections. Check the entire board surface for solder splashes and bridges.

2. Check the interboard wiring to ensure that no wires are “pinched” or contact high-wattage resistors.

3. Look for unauthorized replacement parts, particularly transistors, that were installed during a previous repair. Point them out to the customer and recommend their replacement.

4. Look for parts which, though functioning, show obvious signs of deterioration. Point them out to the customer and recommend their replacement.

5. Check the B+ voltage to see it is at the values specified.

6. Flexible Circuit Board Repairing

• Keep the temperature of the soldering iron around 270 ˚C during repairing.

• Do not touch the soldering iron on the same conductor of the circuit board (within 3 times).

• Be careful not to apply force on the conductor when soldering or unsoldering.

SERVICE NOTE

1. POWER SUPPLY DURING REPAIRS

In this unit, about 10 seconds after power is supplied (8.4 V) to the battery terminal using the service power cord (J-6082-223-A), the power is shut off so that the unit cannot operate. This following two methods are available to prevent this. Take note of which to use during repairs.

Method 1.

Connect the servicing remote commander RM-95 (J-6082-053-B) to the LANC jack, and set the remote commander switch to the “ADJ” side.

Method 2.

Press the battery switch of the battery terminal using adhesive tape, etc.

2. TO TAKE OUT A CASSETTE WHEN NOT EJECT (FORCE EJECT)

1 Refer to 2-8 to remove the front panel assembly. 2 Refer to 2-10 to remove the cabinet (L) assembly. 3 Refer to 2-11 to remove the cabinet (R) assembly. 4 Refer to 2-16 to remove the battery panel assembly. 5 Disconnect CN4401 of VC-235 board. 6 Add +5 V from the DC POWER SUPPLY and unload with a

pressing the cassette lid.

7 Pull the timing belt in the direction of the

arrow with a pincette while pressing the cassette lid (be careful not to damage it) to adjust the bending of a tape.

3. NOTE FOR REPAIR

When installing a connector, don’t press down at wire of connector. It is possible that a wire is snapped.

Make sure that the flat cable and flexible board are not cracked of bent at the terminal. Do not insert the cable insufficiently nor crookedly.

Cut and remove the part of gilt which comes off at the point. (Be careful or some pieces of gilt may be left inside)

When remove a connector, don’t pull at wire of connector. It is possible that a wire is snapped.

4. LCD TYPE CHECK

By measuring the resistor value between Pin 6 of CN5502 and Pin q; of CN5502 on PD-117/118 board, the type of LCD can be discriminated.
