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
touching high-wattage resistors.
3. Check that all control knobs, shields, covers, ground straps, and
mounting hardware have been replaced. Be absolutely certain that
you have replaced all the insulators.
4. Look for unauthorized replacement parts, particularly transistors,
that were installed during a previous repair. Point them out to the
customer and recommend their replacement.
5. Look for parts which, though functioning, show obvious signs of
deterioration. Point them out to the customer and recommend their
replacement.
6. Check the line cords for cracks and abrasion. Recommend the
replacement of any such line cord to the customer.
7. Check the B+ and HV to see if they are specifi ed values. Make sure
your instruments are accurate; be suspicious of your HV meter if
sets always have low HV.
8. Check the antenna terminals, metal trim, “metallized” knobs, screws,
and all other exposed metal parts for AC leakage. Check leakage as
described below.
Leakage Test
The AC leakage from any exposed metal part to earth ground and from
all exposed metal parts to any exposed metal part having a return to
chassis, must not exceed 0.5 mA (500 microamperes). Leakage current
can be measured by any one of three methods.
1. A commercial leakage tester, such as the Simpson 229 or RCA
WT-540A. Follow the manµFacturers’ instructions to use these
instructions.
2. A battery-operated AC milliampmeter. The Data Precision 245 digital
multimeter is suitable for this job.
3. Measuring the voltage drop across a resistor by means of a VOM
or battery-operated AC voltmeter. The “limit” indication is 0.75 V,
so analog meters must have an accurate low voltage scale. The
Simpson’s 250 and Sanwa SH-63TRD are examples of passive
VOMs that are suitable. Nearly all battery-operated digital multimeters
that have a 2 VAC range are suitable (see Figure A).
How to Find a Good Earth Ground
A cold-water pipe is a guaranteed earth ground; the cover-plate retaining
screw on most AC outlet boxes is also at earth ground. If the retaining
screw is to be used as your earth ground, verify that it is at ground by
measuring the resistance between it and a cold-water pipe with an
ohmmeter. The reading should be zero ohms.
If a cold-water pipe is not accessible, connect a 60- to 100-watt troublelight (not a neon lamp) between the hot side of the receptacle and the
retaining screw. Try both slots, if necessary, to locate the hot side on the
line; the lamp should light at normal brilliance if the screw is at ground
potential (see Figure B).

The units in this manual contain a self-diagnostic function. If an error occurs, the STANDBY/TIMER LED will automatically begin to fl ash. The number
of times the LED fl ashes translates to a probable source of the problem. A defi nition of the STANDBY/TIMER LED fl ash indicators is listed in the
instruction manual for the user’s knowledge and reference. If an error symptom cannot be reproduced, the Remote Commander can be used to review
the failure occurrence data stored in memory to reveal past problems and how often these problems occur.
Diagnostic Test Indicators
When an error occurs, the STANDBY/TIMER LED will fl ash a set number of times to indicate the possible cause of the problem. If there is more than
one error, the LED will identify the fi rst of the problem areas.
Results for all of the following diagnostic items are displayed on screen. If the screen displays a “0”, an error has occurred.

Quitting the Self-Diagnostic Screen
To quit the entire self-diagnostic screen, turn off the power switch on the Remote Commander or the main unit.
Occurs when excessive current fl ows through R5013. The increase in voltage across R5013 causes the output of Q5004 to go high, and this high
signal goes to the micro.
+B overvoltage (OVP)
IC6505 detects +B OVP condition and turns on Q6522. This sends a high signal to the micro and also shuts down the AC relay.
V-STOP
Occurs when an absence of the vertical defl ection pulse is detected by pin 24 of IC2801 (BY Board). Power supply will shut down when waveform
interval exceeds 2 seconds.
White Balance Failure
If the RGB levels* do not balance within 2 seconds after the power is turned on, this error will be detected by IC2801. TV will stay on, but there will be
no picture.
*(Refers to the RGB levels of the AKB detection Ref pulse that detects 1K).

ANODE CAP REMOVAL PROCEDURE
WARNING: High voltage remains in the CRT even after the power is disconnected. To avoid electric shock, discharge CRT before attempting to
remove the anode cap. After removing the anode cap, short circuit to either the metal chassis, CRT shield, or carbon painted on the CRT.
NOTE: After removing the anode cap, short circuit the anode of the picture tube and the anode cap to either the metal chassis, CRT shield or carbon
painted on the CRT.
REMOVAL PROCEDURES
a
Turn up one side of the rubber cap in
the direction indicated by arrow a .
b
Use your thumb to pull the rubber
cap fi rmly in the direction indicated
by arrow b .
HOW TO HANDLE AN ANODE CAP
1. Do not use sharp objects which may cause damage to the surface of the anode
cap.
2. To avoid damaging the anode cap, do not squeeze the rubber covering too
hard. A material fi tting called a shatter-hook terminal is built into the rubber.
3. Do not force turn the foot of the rubber cover. This may cause the shatter-hook
terminal to protrude and damage the rubber.
Anode Button
When one side of the rubber cap separates from
the anode button, the anode cap can be removed
by turning the rubber cap and pulling it in the
direction of arrow c .
The following adjustments should be made when a complete
realignment is required or a new picture tube is installed.
These adjustments should be performed with rated power supply
voltage unless otherwise noted.
The controls and switch should be set as follows unless otherwise
noted:

7. When the position of the defl ection yoke is determined, tighten it with
the defl ection yoke mounting screw.
8. If landing at the corner is not right, adjust it by using the disk
magnets.
NOTE: Changing neck assembly position will affect corner convergence.
2-4.1. DYNAMIC FOCUS/DYNAMIC QUADRA-
POLE DATA
Normally, no adjustments are necessary for these systems. If for some
reason the data is lost, use the data from Table 1 on Page 24:
Write the data from any non-vertically compressed mode, then use
the CPY1 function (CXA2170D-4 Item 6) to copy the data to the
vertical compressed modes. V-compressed data is identical to non-vcompressed data. Service personnel with a trained eye can adjust the
DF or DQP registers to adjust DF phase (Item 7) or DQP phase (Item 8),
respectively, to balance left and right focus. Refrain from adjusting more
than 5 steps from table data below. Further adjustment indicates a circuit
problem -- troubleshoot to cause. Be sure that Neck Assembly is in the
proper location. Always mark position before moving or replacing neck
assembly.
