First, make sure the horiz out did not short again, if it did, replace small electrolytic in base of horiz driver transistor circuit. Also many times the small caps in the converter circuit must be changed, usually marked 224 and 681, six all together. also make sure the two 82k resistors(in converter circuit) are both in tolerance,sometimes one will increase in value and off balance the switching of converter circuit. to save damage while testing use a variac,start at 0v and slowly increase to 30 v,(while monitoring the 135v)at this point the converter will output 135v.any increase above that means a "no go" so shut it down. good luck, GaryCHAMBERS TV BRADENTON,FL SINCE 1982 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Matt De Young" <gibbys_service@xxxxxxxxx> To: <techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, March 21, 2002 8:54 AM Subject: [TechAssist] Help with Sony KV27ts36, Blows q601& 602 > This unit blows the voltage converter transistors Q601 and Q602 as well as the fuse resistor.
