Hitachi VT530E etc
Playback picture freezes repeatedly when warm / capstan motor overhaulThis symptom is usually due to contamination of the capstan motor bearing which can in turn lead to overheating of the drive chip, the problem can often be remedied by dismantalling the motor and thoroughly cleaning the bearing then lightly lubricating with a suitable light oil before reassembly
Hitachi C2558TN G8Q
The H.T wouldn't vary at all, even though it was actually at the correct level 157VZD941 BZV10 was found to be o/c. It's a 6.5V zener diode and not as i had assumed by the numbering on it a 10V. ZD941 and the H.T pot VR941 are located next to the optocoupler
Hitachi C2558TN G8Q
This set would not switch automatically into A/V mode when a video or any other equipment was connected via the scartThe set could manually be placed into A/V from the tv's front end controls. The cure was to replace ZD301 ZTE251. I assumed it was a 2V but as i had none in stock i tried a 2.7V zener which worked perfectly. It's located near the scart socket

This set was dead apart from a hissing sound from the speaker, no standby led5 volt regulator on front panel had 13 volt input but only 1 volt output, Replacement cured the fault
Hitachi C2867TN
The set was going off intermittentlyResoldering all three pins on regulator IC952 cured the problem
Hitachi C32W511TN A7
Intermitently goes to standbyCheck R959 as described by Mark C24W511TN and found no problem there, however I discovered that several connections in the area of R959 had fractured. They appear to be components near/attached to a heat sink. Re-soldering the joins did the trick
