Funkcijske
No function, after being switched onFault 1: The last position has been stored after switch off. Faults that can occur: The appliance has been switched off with the remote control and afterwards the mains plug has been pulled out of the socket. Now the TV can only be switched on with the remote control (or it goes to standby). the appliance goes to stand-by. No function, the power supply gurgles and whistles. Fault 1 The audio module has a short, therefore the power supply is intermittent. No function. Fault 1: Capacitor 2609 (8200pF/1500V) is defective. Fault 2: Power supply goes to protection mode. Check if power supply or loading is defective. Replace loading with a 220V (100W) lamp. If power supply ok then change C2609. Fault 3: Check if service no. starts with AG01. Appliance is set to protective mode. Check fuse T1638. Fault 4: Check if 300V present. If no 140V then check R3681 (6K8). Fault 5: + 140V is not present. Replace TS7687 (BUT12A; 4822 130 43919). Also replace TS7674 (BC337; 4822 130 40855), TS7685 (BC547; 4822 130 44257), TS7686 (BC369; 5322 130 44593). Standby LED and Crispening LED both flash. Fault 6: Capacitor 2612 (360nF/250V) S/C. Fault 7: Line BU is defective. Fault 8: Check circuits 7200 and 7210 (TDA1514) if R3200 and R3201 on audio module are warm. Note: With the old 3A chassis line time base does not start if sound module has been removed. With some models video switches off if sound module has been removed. Fault 9 : Replace IC (TDA1514) on audio module. Occasionally does not start up. Fault 1 Replace diodes 6616, 6677 and 6672. When the appliance is set to stand-by after playing for about 3 hours, it switches on and off continuously and the red and green LED's also. Fault 1 Check T7731, T7743 and T7742. The appliance automatically switches to EXT2. Fault 1: C2835 (4.7nF) is defective. The capacitor is positioned on the front operation board in the TV. The appliance is in safety mode. Fault 1: C2610 (180nf) has a short circuit, amplifier TDA1514. At start up the appliance goes into safety mode. Fault 1: D2609 has a short circuit (8.2nf) and D6609 is leaky. No sound. No picture.

Fault 1: High voltage present. Replace Wickman fuse 1624 on appliances with NICAM and PIP. Replace 800mA-T by a 1.25A-T.

USEFUL INFO.
Power supply unit repair. Fault 1 Disconnect R3684. Connect the appliance with the control transformer at max. 50V (main plug). The set now operates without fuse and other controls. Rating of fuse 1642. The following production change has been introduced in versions of the 3A chassis which include both NICAM sound and picture-in-picture (PIP). The value of the fuse 1642 has been increased from T800mA to T1.25A code no. 4822 071 51252. Reason: To avoid spurious blowing of the fuse. Chassis 3A adjustments. Fault 1: Geometric adjustments are made with the remote control (technical manual page 3D2). Pay attention to the menu setting (setting no 12 = 01), if it is incorrect you may have problems eg. norme setting impossible or the channel number displayed does not correspond to the channel transmitter. Adjustments with the service function. Fault 1: When working, transmitter RC5375 (see documentation châssis A) is replaced by RC5991 (4822 218 20831). To make the adjustments press "mono" and "print control (4)" at the same time on the transmitter. Micro processor 3A monitor /WO47/WO64. Note: IC7830 MAB8461P/WO47 is replaced with MAB8461P/WO64 (4822 209 71734). Recoding C2609. Note: C2609 (8N2 1500V) becomes 4822 121 40249. Change to Video Mute Circuit. It may be found that on some sets using the 3A chassis, the picture takes several minutes to appear when the set is switched on from cold. This effect is caused by the Video Mute circuit waiting until the three CRT guns have reached the same emission levels. In cases of specific complaint the following circuit change can be made. Add a 1N4148 Diode in the series with D6492 on the Tube Base panel. Part number 4822 130 30621. When IF-module (4822 212 22439) is defective it's not always necessary to replace the module, replacing the TDA4429 is often enough. Because the TDA4429 (pos. 7135) of this IF-module is no longer available, TDA4439 is supplied (4822 209 71973). However a number of modifications must still be carried out. Perform the modifications in the following sequence: - Change position R3131 of jumper in 1kohm (4822 051 10102) - Open circuit the copper track between position R3131 and pin 2 of IC7135. - Add transistor BC548C. - Remove R3161. - Change position C2161 from 4.7µF to 2.2µF. - Change position R3135 from 470ohm to jumper. - Change position R3134 from 1kohm to 4.7kohm. - remove wire bridge 9162. - Open circuit the copper track between pin 13 of IC7135 and the base of T7164. - Add a capacitor of 100nF between pin 13 IC7135 and earth. - Connect pin 16 of IC7135 with earth.

Connection of a loop system to the TV. Note: A problem usually occurs when connecting a loop system to a modern TV. A solution is available from the hearing aid suppliers in the form of a specific loop system amplifier which is supplied from the mains and which functions with a scart or phono plug signal. On the advice of a specialist a large part of the cost is usually covered by insurance. Spare part information, keyboard assy. For the keyboard assys 4822 212 23132 and 4822 212 22765 only the foil is delivered, without the plastic housing (see service information HE92-06 dd 11-05-92). The separate plastic housing is now also available again and can be ordered with code number 4822 404 31276. Note: When only the foil is broken please re-use the old plastic housing. Spare part information. The picture tube of the 17" 3A sets (A41EAM00X03) is now available with service code number 4822 131 20552. EEPROM in CHASSIS 3A (4822 209 71848). Recently code number 4822 209 71848 (preprogrammed X2404) has been replaced by code number 4822 900 10419 (preprogrammed X24C04). In some cases this replacement does not function 100% in all versions of CHASSIS 3A. Please check your local stocks and remove all 4822 900 10419. PCS stock is adapted from today onwards. Selection of programme sound. NICAM digital stereo test transmissions are currently being radiated from some TV transmitters. During these test transmissions the sound broadcast by NICAM will not necessarily be related to the TV picture, in which case the user will have to de-select NICAM in order to hear the normal programme sound via the FM analog route. To de-select NICAM, press the button marked I-II on the remote control handset. To return to NICAM sound press this button again. The receiver takes about 1.5 seconds to respond to this particular handset command. The receiver will "remember" the last selection made with the I-II handset button, even after the mains supply has been switched off and then on again. There is a second button, also marked I-II, on the TV's front control panel. This is NOT intended to duplicate the operation of the I-II handset button, but is a language selection control for headphone listening. It has no effect on the sound of present broadcasts. Recoding picture tube A78EBK02X03. Note: The picture tube A78EBK02X03 (4822 131 20265) is no longer available. Replacement A80EBK221X11, code no. 4822 131 20541.

Check signal on 3727.1. Low distorted sound. This fault was found to be caused by IC 7180 (TDA 8420; 4822 209 70935 or TDA 8421; 4822 209 73325) This device provides audio pre amplification. REMARKS: To aid fault finding, use a 1KHZ test tone. No NICAM sound. 7201 defective (4822 209 61114).

No sound when cold and/or picture and sound flashing on and off every second. Fault 1: Check electrolytic capacitors by substitution in the FE644 tuner/if mode. Sound sometimes crackles. Note: Sound is good via sound channel 2. Via scart connection both channels are good. Fault 1: Replace sound output stage ICs. Modification: 1) Add a capacitor (1N5) between 5 and 8 of IC7200 and IC7210. 2) Change C2228 and C2229 to 2N2. 3) Fit a P4KE3C700 (4822 209 73095) diode parallel with C2228 and C2229 polarity is unimportant. Sound output stage is defective due to ESD. Fault 1: - Add capacitor (1N5) between 5 and 8 of IC7200 and IC7210. - Change C2228 and C2229 to 2N2. - Add parallel with C2228 and C2229 a P4KE30C700 diode (4822 209 73095). Polarity is unimportant.

Fault 1: Check for 12 volts on pin 18 of IC7125 (TDA8405). Find this on the same panel as the scart sockets. If missing the 10R fuse that feeds it, is O/C. Sound comes out of this IC on pins 19 and 20, goes in on 6 and 8. Note: This resistor can be blown up when servicing as the scart panel can waggle around and short to the tuner. This is because it is pulled by all the leads and various panels that are hanging on it when the set is in a dismantled state. No sound from speakers. Ok via headphones. Voltages ok, mute signal on pin 1 works. Fault 1: [TDA1514 replaced]. Check 12V at pin 4 of 7180. If missing, check 27V at 3180; -27V at 2184, 27V at pin 6 of 7200; -27V at pin 4 and audio signal at pin 5. Suspect 2225.
