Marvin,Q1,& R120 are part of the vipur circuit, I pulled out a goldenrod from waaay back and it says if Q1 & R120 are blown the cause is "T1 shorted" the other Vipur related notes are; Dead-C16 & T1, No start up-CR10 shorted, Dead-T1 shorted, that`s all there is listed, Looks like T1 may be your culprit, good luck Larry Eastman - American TV & Electronics - Sunny Florida MLee107346@xxxxxxx wrote: >hi techs is there anyone out there whose familiar with the rca tv model# >fmr550wr.i dont know whether this is a ctc130 a ,b or c chassis? the problem >is R-120 in the power supply it literally blew up.i checked q1 and u2 in the >circuit in which i assumed to be the vipur board also bridge recifiers are >good on this board. any help is much >appeciated. thanks guys. > > >marvin lee >wbal tv >3800 hooper ave >baltimore,maryland.21211 >e-mail: mlee107346@xxxxxxx >------------------------------------------ >Make your TechAssist database better! >Submit Repair Tips here: http://www.tech-assist.org/secure/tip/ >------------------------------------------ >To UNSUBSCRIBE your email address, click here: >mailto:techassist-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe >Or send a BLANK email with unsubscribe in the >SUBJECT field to the address above. > > ------------------------------------------ Make your TechAssist database better!
