Crt | Kp53xbr45 serial 9032096. unit has burned crt's again. crt were replaced in october of 1998 because of a bar burned across the face plate. now the same bar is burned across the face plates of green and blue crt's. this is caused by the stock market channel and or cnbc banner at the bottom of the screen | This customer was warned last year this would be a 1 time replacement for this symptom. they were warned that continuous display of a stationary image will burn any crt especially a projection television. | Muller |

Crt | Kp53xbr45.serial# 9015424 unit had two crt's red and blue leaked on the original ""e"" board prompting their replacement. after changing the crt's and the ""e"" board it was discovered the set had a symptom of immediate shut down. "" | When checking ic901(1&13) and ic903(13) we had no positive voltages that would cause a high voltage protect shut down. at no time did we ever get high voltage or horizontal drive, for the high voltage output, q801. however q505, the horizontal driver for the horizontal output always had drive to it. when the first technician replaced the original circuit board it was discovered that he did not transfer the jumpers on cn804. tsound must be three jumpers on this connector otherwise the set will never get high voltage. cn804(1&2), cn804(3&4), cn804(5&6). unit needs these three jumpers to route the 2 abl circuits, .horizontal drive pulse. replacing these jumpers restored | Muller |

Control panel | Sony kp61xbr48 when the power button is pushed in the set will shut off then turn back on again | The power on off switch is pushed the logic low that gets sent to the cpu is not staying low. it get corrupted with a bounce caused by the contact in the power on -off switch. this fix is to install a 2.2 mfd capacitor across the on-off switch to de-bounce the on/off switch/ | Muller |

Chroma | Sony kp53s35 . unit has poor chroma of the main picture. | It appears like a loss of chroma phase lock of the 3.58 internal oscillator. the frequency is unstable. recommend tech resolder the connections on x301, c305, c310 and r322 in the afcfl circuit of the jungle ic. this is ic301 near pins 1, 2, and 3.. unit had broken connection on r322. | Muller |

Audio | Kp53xbr45 serial # unit has history of the ""gb"" board shorting out the switching transistors in the switcher supply. q1201, & q1202 short with r1206 opening. by simply replacing the transistors and c1210, c1211, c1212, and c1213 the power supply will run for 3 to 5 weeks then short the switching transistors again. the customer explained that they lost audio while the set was playing. the sound quality was normal up until the event that took place to short the switching transistors. this has happened 2 times. tech is wondering if tsound are any other case histories regarding this symptom. "" | Suggest the tech look at replacing the following components d1204, d1205, d1209, d1208, d1206, d1207, d1210, & d1211. these are the limiting diodes and have a generic # 1ss133t. in addition tsound are 2 zener diodes in the secondary of this power supply that are used as protection they are d1213, and d1214. they will act like a crowbar across the + or - 18 volt power supply in the event the voltage increases beyond the avalanche limits of the zener diodes. in addition to the components i would suggest the tech replace ic1201 | Muller |

Audio | Kp61xbr45. unit has no audio.. when an external amp is connected to the line outputs the set will produce line level audio to the external amp. | Tech is not getting b+ to any of the audio output ic's on the ""k"" board. apparently the ""gb"" board is not providing the b+ necessary for the audio to turn on. tech needs to check the condition of the 4 fusible resistors in the +18 & -18 volt supply. r1217, r1273, r1297, r1295 "" | Muller |

System control | Sony kv2084 will not memorize any channels. tech ordered the cpu and memory ic. | I asked tech to check the negative supply voltage to ic103 memory ic on 10, it should be -29 vdc before replacing the cpu and memory ic. cpu was not needed. verified the presence of the supply voltages at the memory chip. the memory chip was defective. | Muller |
