Paul I would check the 9-700 board for bad joints , in all the years that I've worked on Zenith sets, the 9-700 board was the single board with the most bad joints that I had ever repaired (almost 70 on a single board) peter Kowalik pe.kow@xxxxxxxxxxxx Keith's Stereo burl Ont ----- Original Message ----- From: "Paul" <dntwntv@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, June 19, 2003 2:23 PM Subject: [TechAssist] Zenith ZB3193Y Digital C > This is one of those Zenith sets with the Bose audio and the 9-700 main board made in1989. To my knowledge the board is no longer available. The problem is the signal goes to snow intermittently.Loses picture and sound is muted because of loss of signal. Also lower channels are snowy.This uses a prescaler and ICs on board to tune, per the info that I have. All the supply voltages and lytics are OK. Was wondering if anyone is familiar with this chassis and problem.I didn't find anything in my Zenith data base that was of any help. Could the prescaler be the culprit?
