Anyone have any input on this unit? I checked with both of the local ASCs and neither had a SM that I could borrow, one loaned me one he thought might be similar but it is not. Of course, the manual from Pioneer is ridiculously expensive. This one had a blown fuse, shorted Q208, Q207 (horizontal ckt). Replaced these obvious problems and resoldered dozens of bad joints and it tries to come up but shuts down. Flyback primary shows a ringing on pulse at startup which made me look to the transformer, but it rings good and drive tests good. Besides, it is also a split design with a seperate H out. Obvious semis and caps that are resonable to test are ok. Yokes ring good and have identical inductance and DCR. I hate to have to replace the board but at the price of a manual plus the time and labor, it may be the reasonable thing to do. Any comments are appreciated. A scan of the schematic for the ps/deflection board would be great. Leonard G.
