I hope you recorded the eeprom values before replacing the chip. Have you done one of those before? Might be Y7401 off freq. Check C7507. Also Q4106 possibly shorted, R4132 open and R4130 open. Replace L2302 at end of T chip. Repair trace from 12V to collector of Q7601 SAW AMP. Check U7301 see if pin 1 has any output. > Affordable John > Affordable Electronics > Tumwater Wash. > 98501 > 360-786-9507 > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Dave > Sent: Thursday, October 04, 2001 2:38 PM > To: techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: [TechAssist] Re: CTC-177AA > > > I am a tech and I'm sorry my message wasn't clear I did the re solder and > replaced the epprom #218400 My problem is the set can't leave the house and > I have no prints for RCA or GE.
