Brand Model Fault Detailed Problem Solution By
SONYKV2602
Vertical foldover, replaced ic502Vertical foldover at bottom. all voltages around ic501 andic502 checked good except pin 5 of ic502 which was very low, waveformswere distorted.
SONYKV2145R
No video/sound, replaced prescalerNo video - no sound.
SONYKV2145R
Dark picture, replaced brt controlUnit loses brightness (goes black) intermittently. voltageok, tp49 goes low whenever problem occurred. found brightness controlshorting to its case.
SONYKV1946R
Dead, fbtFlyback arc over.
SONYKV1946R
Sound noise, replace t206This unit had a background hiss in the sound. adjusting t206 did no good. found t206 had the incorrect transformer installed.p/n 1-403-360-13 was marked on the outside.
SONYKV1913
Shut downAt turn on, set would shut down after a few minutes to a fewhours.
SONYKV1913
No soundSound goes on and off, cooling c226 would confirm problem.
SONYKV1746R
Shut down, installed c547 as per t/nThis unit would intermittently go into hv shutdown.
SONYKV2644R
Incorrect tuning, replaced ic2002Set would stay in address position a at all times. i foundwhen i turned channel set switch on and programmed set, it would work ok.but if i shut the set off, and turned it back on again, it would come onin position a and could not be addressed again.
SONYKV2643R
No operation, replaced c539, c805 and r812Set inoperative. found r812 open and c805 leaky. replacedthem and picture displayed vertical bar (approx. 5 inches) on left side,r812 was running warm. found c539 open.
SONYKV1945RS
Poor remote operation, replaced ic1, cx-786 in commanderPoor sensitivity with remote approx. 6 feet.
SONYKV1945RS
Shut down, selected r563This unit intermittently shuts off, sometimes twice a week,sometimes once. voltage on pin 12 was 5.3v making it too near thethreshold level of 5.6v, changing r563 to satisfy the procedure in manualresults in a 15k resistor which was half of the original
SONYKV1945R
No color, replaced ic501No color. found no pulse at pin 20 of ic301. traced theproblem to pin 22 of ic501 where i found no sync out.
SONYKV1217
Dead, replaced q602No sound, no picture, channel indicator stays in one position,tuning and band indicators are dim. found regulator transistor q602leaky, and both audio output transistors q205 and q206 shorted also r232open.
SONYKV2647R
Snow picture, resolder r053Set displayed snow on all channels. i found r053 on mf boardimproperly soldered.
SONYKV2647R
Set would not turn on/off by remote, ic-101Set would not turn on/off.
SONYKV2645RS
Color distortion, replaced r751Bleeding color (red). found r751/470kΩ resistor changedvalue.
SONYKV2643R
Raster pulsating, replaced r609Picture and raster pulsating. the 135v line exhibited samepulsation.
SONYKV2145R
No picture, fbtSet kept shorting out the horizontal output transistor.
SONYKV2101
Picture distortionSet had light vertical bands in picture. they started on the left and became less bright as you moved to the right. horizontal output waveform was affected as well.
