-------- Original Message -------- Subject: Symphonic combi TVCR19G1 tv plays ok,tape shuts all off in 30 sec. FIX Date: Mon, 15 Oct 2001 16:56:41 -0400 From: Phil Bader <philbad@xxxxxxxxxx> Organization: Jan Phyl TV Inc. Winter Haven, Fl. Estab. 1976 To: "CONSUMERELREPAIR-L@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" <CONSUMERELREPAIR-L@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> The TV alone would play for ever. Insert a tape and play,and in 30 seconds it would shut off totally like HV shut-down. I removed the deck,cleaned the I/R diodes, prism, and replaced the large clear light house I/R diode in center. It was the same as my normally stocked Philips # 483513087139 used in their funai chassis VCRs. (In combis it's D511, in VCRs it's D205 in the Philips units). Has ran now for a half hour. 'Bout time I fix one of these! Help make your TechAssist online repair tips database better!
