Repair notes

 

Full repair description and observations

 

1

Not much to say with this fault because I was lucky to find the solution on the internet repair database. It was stated that R1001 on the main PCB board must be replaced

 

 

2

This was a 0.39Ohm fusible resistor in the power Regulation circuit  which gave a reading of 22kohm. I placed a 0.7Ohm resistor instead and the Video came back to life.

 

 

Repair summary

 R1001 (0.39Ohm) OPEN CIRCUIT

 

 

 

Precautions, fouls and advises

 

1

If the resistor was placed with a higher value (eg 2 Ohms) it would get very hot and may burn out. This is due Power Theorem of POWER = I2 R, larger R, More power as heat is dissipated.
