Hi Paul You want to make sure all the caps removed and board is clean. One time I had solder piece stuck between the ic pins and it was very hard to see. It was messing up the video. After I cleaned everything came out ok. good luck email to : alltv@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Ken Dinckan All Tv&Appliance Service 2747 Roosevelt Street Suite B Carlsbad CA, 92008 Phone : (760)434-1131 -----Original Message----- From: techassist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:techassist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Paul Sent: Tuesday, December 02, 2003 7:14 PM To: techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [TechAssist] Mitsubishi VS4571 PIP problem The problem is new to me. When menu is brought up or pip function is activated there is a square area that I assume would be the PIP but there is no video in it and it moves from top to bottom like no vertical sync. If a signal is injected into an external input it does not change with exchange function. The picture is normal until the menu is up or PIP is selected.I have recapped the PIP bd. I have gone over my work with strong magnification. I have checked for eaten traces and bad feed throughs. If the PIP bd is by- passed the menu is stable. Has anyone ever had to replace the flatpack I/Cs on this board?
