My guess is that he broke a connection at the yoke. As I recall on these sets the little board where the wiring into the yokes connects is pretty fragile and a bitch to get to. Leonard G.

There was + & - voltages at both fuses on the D board. I told customer I needed a service manual to try to check the circuit. When I returned with the manual the customer told me he unpluged the red plug on red crt yoke and turned the set on and it flashed 3 times and now no picture at all.(phew!!!!---why me) > I know this is an old post but i,m just hoping somebody familiar with these sony projection tv's can help. I have what looks like the exact vertical scope waveform coming out of pin 5 on the vert output ic and at the red yoke. It is in series with the green & the blue. It looks like it gets a little smaller at the green yoke and then a little smaller at the blue. there is about 1.3 ohms from the bottom of the blue winding to the ground and the combined resistance of all the yokes is about 12.9 ohms.The standby led on the front pannel just keeps blinking ,which means there is no vert .pulse getting to the protection circuits to turn on the video outputs.(good thing). > My question is why can't the yokes be driven by what looks like such a good signal and if I have any problems in the convergence outputs will that stop the circuit from running. There are no burnt parts, the fuses are ok, the voltages are all within a volt according to the schematic. > Richard Lsa Placa <continentaltv@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:Can anybody tell me what could have happened to this vertical section after the customer unplugged the vertical deflection plug (cn1413) from the crt's. (He thought he was going to shut off the red gun and watch a clear blue/green picture).He told me he heard 3 clicks when he pluged the set in with the yokes disconnected and that was the end of the picture. I have a good strong vert pulse coming from pin 5 at the output ic and at the yokes but only see a line.All the voltages are pretty close to the manual on the output and convergence stk's.Any help on this one would be greatly appreciated. > > Thank You! > Richard La Placa > Continental TV > Chestertown MD, > 410-778-1113 > http://www.continentaltv.homestead.com > > > --------------------------------- > Do you Yahoo!? > Faith Hill - Exclusive Performances, Videos, & more > faith.yahoo.com > > ------------------------------------------ > To REMOVE your email address, click here: > http://www.tech-assist.org/unsubb.html > To CHANGE your email address, click here: > http://www.techassist.net/forms/change.html > ------------------------------------------ > ***NEW*** Tips Added Instantly!!!*** > Submit Repair Tips here: > http://www.tech-assist.org/secure/tip/ > > > --------------------------------- > Do you Yahoo!? > Faith Hill - Exclusive Performances, Videos, & more > faith.yahoo.com > > ------------------------------------------ > To REMOVE your email address, click here: > http://www.tech-assist.org/unsubb.html > To CHANGE your email address, click here: > http://www.techassist.net/forms/change.html > ------------------------------------------ > ***NEW*** Tips Added Instantly!!!*** > Submit Repair Tips here: > http://www.tech-assist.org/secure/tip/ ------------------------------------------ To REMOVE your email address, click here: http://www.tech-assist.org/unsubb.html To CHANGE your email address, click here: http://www.techassist.net/forms/change.html ------------------------------------------ ***NEW*** Tips Added Instantly!!!*** Submit Repair Tips here: http://www.tech-assist.org/secure/tip/
