"HOT" switched. In other words one side of the relay is
connected to power oscillator output that runs nearly 350
vac Peak to Peak at 90Khz. Once the relay is closed this
energy is placed across the power output transformer and
provides the drive necessary to produce the B+.Measuring

Our tech plugged in the set and found the set did have a
spark as soon as the set was plugged in the AC outlet. This
is perfectly normal because this chassis has to fully charge 2
820 mfd electrolytics in a voltage doubler configuration. This

draw several amperes until the filters are charges up. This
will cause a contact arc the moment the set is connected to

Tech needs to add a resistor in parallel with R432 to
effectively reduce the value of R432. This changes the
voltage divider ratio to the volume control circuit and makes
the volume circuit more linear in operation.
I had the tech try to measure if there was any DC voltages
that resided on the Variable audio output connectors. There
was "4.5" volts on the Right channel and "0" volts on the left
channel. When the "Mute" transistors on the variable line
triggered they pulled both lines to ground. When the external
amp was connected to this circuit the input capacitor for the
right channel charged with this 4.5 volts. We still had audio
on this line even though it was at a 4.5 vdc potential. But
when the Sony muted, the input capacitor inside the Big
External amp discharged and caused a tremendous pop.
C172 is a .47mfd used to decoupling the audio from IC101
the Variable audio control IC. This capacitor had 4.5 vdc on
each leg measured to ground. Removing the capacitor and
measuring the DC resistance across the cap measured 175
ohms. Replacement of the capacitor corrected the symptom.
Problem is best heard in the video input mode with no signal
the output pins of IC1401 but not on the input. Part number
is 8-759-369-39. IC1401 corrected the trouble.

video compression format MPEG3. In order for the
compression to work correctly the Digitization process only
updates the data that is changing. Background data is not
updated as regularly as the foreground data. Hence when
everything must get updated. But the MAX Data throughput
is finite. the entire video waveform will not be accurately
represented, instead the smaller detailed portions of the
picture will begin to have larger pixels so not to exceed the
Max Data. This is why to the eye the set appears to loose
resolution or picture detail. This is normal.
The set has a dynamic focus error. Tech needs to see if the
Dynamic focus circuitry is running correctly. Also before any
hardware is tested the parameters of HAMP and DCSF
should be adjusted to see if the dynamic focus is effected.
When adjusting these parameters the values get the best
focus when each is mixed out to 60. The focus becomes

shut down if left on after the filaments warm up.
KV32S40 Brightness shading in brighter on the
right side than it is on the left side of the screen.
video input mode is fine. Unit has CATV box
"Scientific Atlantic model 8580338".
KV32S25 Unit will not develop high voltage. When
the set is turned on no high voltage appears. The
set has sound and has a flashing light on the front
indicating the set is still in a stand by mode
waiting for IK pulse feed back acknowledgement
from the jungle IC
KV32S65 intermittently the set will turn off. This
process takes about 30 ~ 60 minutes. The set can
be turned back on again if the power button is
pressed twice. Sometimes the set comes on in the
Video 1 input mode when it was in the tuner mode
before it shut down.
Missing 200 volt source from flyback to CRT driver board.
Trace broken at CN1781
After checking out the box and moving the box it was
discovered the movement of the box effected the screen
brightness. The box was mounted directly beneath the
television. If the box was moved to the far left the symptom
disappeared. If centered below the TV the symptom was
evident. Solution was to move the CATV box away from the
television and remove any electromagnetic interference
caused by the television.
When monitoring the Horizontal output collector we found
the 140 dropped slightly at turn on. But the Horizontal driver
Q501(C) dropped to 85 and back up to 140. I had the tech to
set again. After power up measure the Q501(C) horizontal
driver transistor. It should be about 85 volts and stayed. This
told us we were looking at a shutdown symptom. Checking
all secondaries we found nothing shorted. Replaced flyback
which corrected trouble.
This could be caused by the CRT. Suggest the tech
disconnect the CRT socket an run the set with the tube
disconnected and see if the set shuts down with the CRT
disconnected. With the tube disconnected the chassis ran 3
days without shutting down. A CRT was substituted and the
problem never showed up on the other CRT. Replaced the
CRT and it corrected the symptom.

KV35V36 serial 9024090 Unit has an intermittent
shut down that only occurs after two or three days.
When shut down occurs, the LED in front is
Blinking and raster disappears but sound is OK.
When flexing, heating, or freezing the main circuit
board the problem can never be recreated.
KV24FV10 Unit will shut down immediately after
turn on. But the unit will stay on if the service
mode is entered..
KV32S22 serial # 8055057. Unit will run fine for
15 ~ 30 minutes with sporadic arcing then it will
shut down with a bright green flash
KV32S40 Unit will turn on and immediately shut
down. It does get high voltage briefly. Appears to
be entering over current shutdown. Waveform at
the collector of the horizontal output appears
normal. Horizontal drive is normal if the horizontal
output transistor is removed.
KV32S65 Unit goes into shut down. Will allow HV
to com up but goes into immediate shut down
afterwards. At no time did we ever have Data on 9
& 10 of the Jungle IC
KV35V35 serial 9011978 Unit flashes bright green
with retrace lines then shuts down. When powered
mode.
KV32XBR48 Unit get a bright red screen then
looses horizontal sweep then shuts down. Unit can
be turned on again right away
Tech needs to order the CRT. Since we are not able to
confirm any trouble with chassis The CRT is nearly out of
Warranty. It is recommended that since we are unable to
arc over. Note after 4 weeks of normal operation the CRT
seems to have corrected the symptom.
When monitoring the VP at IC001(18) only 1 volt peak to
peak was measured. Floating IC001(18) allowed the voltage
to return to 5 volt PP. Replacing the IC001 corrected the
Unit needs replacement CRT 8-733-741-05.
Severing the 135 B+ line and placing a 40 watt bulb in series
with the supply were are still getting the same symptom but
the Light illuminates brightly. We began to disconnect the
flyback loads D530, D531. After disconnecting these we
found the set will run with D530 disconnected . Checking this
device it passes the static check. This component is the -15
Open coil that supplied the B+ to the audio controller and
buffer chips. This loss in voltage caused the audio processor
chip to load down the Data and Clock lines and cause this
symptom.
?Unit has a defective CRT. A89LJT80X
Tech needs to tap on neck of CRT and see if the symptom is
aggravated by this action. After tech got to the house an
tapped on CRT it was founf that the Tube was causing the
