Make Model Symptom Problem Solution By
SONY KV1952RS
Snowy picture, c537 shorted Snowy picture on all channels. worse on low band. found-30v line to be missing, i.e. 0v.
SONY KV1952RS
Snowy picture, replace ic005 Snowy picture. no vc. this unit had output from the localoscillator but was not being divided down in the prescaler. there was nooutput at tp61. we found ic005 - prescaler/pll ic to be defective.
SONY KV1952R
Dead, d601 open No b+ regulation. found one rectifier in d601 opened (noresistance reading).
SONY KV1948R
Brightness change, cable signal problem Going to or going from ch. 13, the brightness will change.
SONY KV1947R
Snowy picture, replace pll ic005 Unit does not tune - only snow. no pulse output from pllchip ic005 into active filter.
SONY KV1947R
Intermittent color, l342 This set had intermittent color from date of purchase.tapping on a board would cause color to come and go. following colorsignal path with scope revealed the loss of color at output of l342.in checking this coil withΩmeter, i verified that in fact, t
SONY KV1946R
No vertical deflection, replace c526 No vertical sweep. there was no sign of a sync pulse atpin 19, ic501. dc voltage was ok at this point. sync pulse was presentat pin 21, ic501. found c526 to be leaky.
SONY KV1946R
Poor vertical deflection, replace c524 This unit had only about 2 inches of vertical deflection. wefound the voltage at pin 13/ic501 to be very low (0.8v). output from thedriver was also low. we found c524 to be leaky. this is an importantpart of the vertical sawtooth generator.
SONY KV1945RS
No picture, replaced ic006 Unit fails to tune or show any numeric display on fluorescenttube - just snow on screen. servicer replaced microprocessor. lines forreset constantly high, ic006 bad - actually labelled ic004 on that model.
SONY KV1941R
High freq. noise in audio and video, replaced ic2101 This unit had a high frequency noise in both the audio andvideo. the tuner was locked up and all the neons were lit. we trackedthe problem to a defective decoder ic in the remote. this was a veryunusual problem as the noise was present everywhere and
SONY KV1743R
Shut down This unit immediately went into hv shutdown. at first theproblem appeared to be a power supply/shutdown type of problem. howeverby holding pin 12/ic501 low with a power supply and running the ac up ona variac, it became apparent that the shutdown was b
SONY KV1545RS
Intermittent jitter in picture, replaced r235 This set had a history of intermittent pulling in the pictureand also vertical jitter. inspection of waveform at output of videodetector was fine. the waveform at base of video amplifier (q202) wasexactly like the waveform at its emitter, i.e. no ampli
SONY KV1545RS
No tuning function, jumper jw1 not connected No tuning. no fluorescent display of channel, tuner appearsdead.
SONY KV1223R
Snowy picture, replaced ic005 No output was present from pin 20/ic005 (pwm out for vc).we further discerned that the prescaler was also malfunctioning.
SONY KP5040
Picture distortion, shield wire connection changed Vertical instability on channel 4 only. also loss of verticalsync, deflection and excessive noise only on channel 4. this symptom hasonly appeared in southern connecticut.
SONY KV3000
Intermittent mechanical incorrect operation Dealer informed me the doors on kv-3000 would sometimes notclose, this was very intermittent. changed resistor r606 from 180k to120k. dealer will inform me if the problem happens again (resistor onmg-2 board).
SONY KV2654R
No tuning operation, shorted cp004 Would lock up on one channel also unable to tune stationproperly. found one of the 220pf capacitors in cp004 shorted placing 24volts on the line of the vc as well as the channel select line. there areno p/n's in the manual for cp001/002/003/004 on the
SONY KV2648R
Beat pattern in the picture, replace vhf tuner Beat pattern on all channels. disconnected vc and applied dcvoltage. found it only took 0.01 volts to go from a fair picture to onewith beat pattern.
SONY KV2648R
No screen display, open q4049 and shorted d4046 Bar pattern would not operate on any function. found 9vdcmissing on output of 9vdc regulator. found transistor, q4049 opened andd4046 shorted.
SONY KV2647RX
Too much red intensity, adj acc rv303 Excessive color intensity - too much red.
