Answewed my own question: Removed EEPROM IC346, powered up the set, tuner works. Corrupt eeprom! Now: Do I replace it, or is there a method of "purging", or resetting this one??? Phil Bader -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Philips/Magnavox TS2554C107/ 25B700 fixed vert. now tuner inop. A/V OK Date: Tue, 13 Apr 2004 15:22:25 -0400 From: Phil Bader <tjanphyl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx <techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Similar to the 25B800 chassis... The customer moved the set across the room. Was OK before. The vert output IC500 had cold solder and blew the usual parts: IC500: TDA9302H D445, D409 both 483513037094 R445, R420 both 1 ohm 1/3 watt# 483511657109 Now, powers up OK, with HV, OSD works, but no tuner operation. Black screen. Entered OSD and chenged "input" to A/V, connected my DVD player and rear inputs work OK with good pix and sound. Tuner is getting voltages (+33V, +5V). Since this all worked before the move, I am remembering a reference to this vertical failure corrupting the eeprom. Any thoughts on this? (after all, the move,nor the vertical issue should damage the tuner). And lastly, IF the eeprom is suspect, on this model, can this eeprom be completely removed,as a test, and the TV powered on,to see if tuning is restored? Of course many parameters will not be stored.
