Repair Guide: Common Issues and Fixes

Brand	Model	Fault	Detailed Problem
SONY	SL2410	Intermittent play mode	Stop or p/b mode about 1/2 to 1 1/2 hrs.
SONY	SL2000	Unit will not work on battery power	Unit will not work on battery, but works with tt-2000.
SONY	KV1512	Picture dim	Picture is dim. does not have full width, horizontal. frequency. runs too high.
SONY	KV1920D	Insufficient vertical deflection	Cannot get full vertical def. vertical distortion on thetop, about 1/2 foldover.
SONY	SL5200	No reel drive	No threading nor unthreading, rew, ff.
SONY	STRVX550	Intermittent output	Audio cuts off intermittently. sp relay kicks off.
SONY	KV1356R	Intermittent shut-down, reajusted hold down circuir (r-541)	Unit shuts off on ch. 22.
SONY	KV2670R	Improper brightness, r-526 and d-508	Brightness and screen controls did not work.
SONY	STRVX750	Audio cuts out	After unit warms up, sp relay kicks off.
SONY	KV2681R	Dead, replace t-501 and q-504	Unit was dead due to one leg of t501 was shorted to groundwhich in turn took out the h. output transistor.
SONY	KV2680R	Raster but no audio/video, ic1109 shorted on "x" board	Unit had raster out, no video nor audio, and r1247 wouldshort out at turn on.
SONY	KV25XBR	Marginal failure of ic651 regulator module	Dark pix (customer complained of no video, however video isdiscernable when pix contrast is maximum), 90% raster (horizontal width),audio ok.
SONY	PSLX510	Incorrect ass'y number	Could not locate part number for stator assy. found on page27 the assembly is numbered 129. it should be 126. -hq comments: will issue a t/n and s/b.
SONY	XRM10	Very low, yet undistorted am band audio level	Audio ok coming out of am ic, but would not pass thru c-60 onam pc board.
SONY	CFSF11	No record	Pause is engaged before record. indicator lights but recordlinkage is not engaged. the record trigger lever is jarred off recordlever a (see p.10 of the supplement #1). -hq comments: replacement of forward lever is necessary. the problemcomes from th
SONY	SL25	No p/b or f/f functions	No f/f mode at all. would enter rewind mode whenever the p/bmode was entered. the sensor leads resistance would change from 4Ω to20Ω whenever the leads or the pc bd of the sensor was agitated.
SONY	KX2501A	All blue raster, retrace lines, very low video level, q1302	Crt raster was all blue with faint retrace lines and very lowvideo level. we were unable to reduce the blue level with crt or bright-ness controls. dc voltage checks allowed me to trace problem to a leakytransistor, q1302 on bd board.
SONY	KP4600B	No green vertical sweep	With set on, there was no green and display bar (which wasblack), rolling vertically. system looks like a problem in the picturetube area, but found no green vertical sweep. with loss of verticalsweep, there is no horizontal line, because itclue was th
SONY	SLHF300	No power	Unit would not power up. replaced ic301 (timer) but ic wouldnot reset, so problem was not resolved.
SONY	D5	Blown transistors and ic (sled circuit)	Unit was brought in for service due to defective sled motorgears. upon inspection, we discovered that ic508 and q502-505 were burntseverely. the chip transistors disintegrated. ic508 is cracked and brownin color.
