TROUBLESHOOTING
POWER SUPPLY
Check AC Fuse F60 1.
If
F60
1 is open:
Check Bridge Rectifier Diodes (D601, and D602), Resistor
(R601), Capacitors. C601, C603 thru C606, Electrolytics C607,
and C650, Power Converter IC (IC65
l),
and Power Transformer
(T604).
Apply 120V and check for
17.OV
at the (+) lead of D602.
If
17.OV
is missing:
Check Line Filters (T601, T602), Power Transformer (T604),
Capacitors C608, C609, Electrolytic C610, and
D602.
If
17.OV
is present, check for
15OV*
at the (+)
lead
of D601.
If
15OV*
is missing:
Check the voltages, waveforms, and components associated
with Power Relay (RY601), and Relay Driver Transistor
(Q601), and D601.
Note: The set may be in shutdown. Refer to the “High Voltage
Shutdown” section of this Troubleshooting guide.
If
15OV*
is present at the (+) lead of D601, check for the proper wa-
veform at pin 1 of IC65 1.
If the waveform is missing:
Check the voltages, waveforms, and components associated
with IC65 1, Transfer IC (IC652), Converter Transformer
(T651), and Soft Start Transistor
(4612).
If the proper waveform is present at
pin
1 of IC65 1:
Check the voltages, waveforms, and components associated
with T6.5 1.
* Taken from isolated ground.
HIGH VOLTAGE SHUTDOWN
The
high voltage is monitored by Diode D531, rectifying pulses
from the Horizontal Output Transformer (T500). Should the high
,voltage increase, the rectified voltage at the cathode of Diode D531
will also increase, This will cause the voltage at pin 8 of Protect
Module (PM501) to increase and turn on Protect Transistors (Q607,
4608)
which causes Relay Drive Transistor (4601) to turn off and
remove power from the set.
To troubleshoot, remove Resistor R629 fom the circuit. Use a
variac
for AC power. Start at 90VAC and increase as
necessary
to locate
and repair the defect. Return R629 to the circuit.
Note: Care should be taken in defeating the high voltage shutdown
circuit, as this may cause excessive X-radiation and damage the
CRT,
TSOO,
and associated components. Monitor the high voltage
and troubleshoot.
HORIZONTAL
Determine if the TV is in shutdown:
Refer to the “High Voltage Shutdown” section of this
Troubleshooting guide.
If the TV is not in shutdown, inject a horizontal signal at the base of
the Horizontal Output Transistor
(4502).
If horizontal deflection is now present:
Check the voltages, waveforms, and components associated
with pins
37,39,41,
and 45 of Y/C/J IC (IC301), and
Horizontal Drive Transistor (Q501).
If there is no horizontal sweep:
Check the voltages, waveforms, and components associated
with
4502,
and Horizontal Output Transformer
(T500),
and
check components associated with Diodes D5 17, D5 19, D520,
D521, and D531 for defects.
The high voltage rectifier is part of T500 and if defective will effect
the performance of the horizontal circuits.
If the horizontal oscillator is off frequency:
Check the voltages, waveforms, and components associated
with AFC-DET Transistor (Q307), and Buffer Transistor
(Q3W.
Horizontal linearity or
foldover
problems may be caused by Capaci-
tors C506, C507, and C509 beiig defective.
VERTICAL
Inject a vertical drive signal at pin 3 1 of Y/C/J IC (IC301).
If vertical deflection is now present:
Check the voltages, waveforms, and components associated
with pins 29
thrn 34,38,
and 44 of IC301.
If there is still no vertical deflection:
Check the voltages, waveforms, and components associated
with Vert Out IC
(ICSOO).
Vertical linearity or
foldover
problems may be caused by pincush-
ion, vertical feedback and
bias
circuits:
Check the voltages, waveforms, and components associated
with Pin Correction IC (IC531) and Pin Out Transistor (4530).
Also check Electrolytics C328, C538, C540, C562, C563, and
C566 for defects.
IF-AGC
Inject a video signal at the IF input and check for video on the CRT.
If video is present:
Check the tuner, tuner control, and tuner AFC circuits.
