Hi guys I got this stereo unit the other day. It has 65 volts on the center pins of the current limiting resistors of both channels but both sets of transistors test good? Has anyone had a repeat failure in the feedback section on these? I tested all the transistors and diodes in the feedback section and didn't find any shorts. I also have another Sony amp (STR-DE625) with a similar issue (-46v) but it is only on the center channel on that one. I keep seeing references to the protection relays causing the problem but as I understand they simply remove the speakers from the circuit. I don't have too much experience with amps (fixed 5 so far) and these two Sony's are making me scratch my head. Any thoughts?

Managed to get this up and running, ended up being a poor connection on the volume control board. I'm not sure why that was causing DC on the output? But its been up and running for the last couple hours. Hopefully it will lastLiberating magic smoke one part at a time -
Re: Sony STR-D365
It depends on the topology. An amp with no capacitors in the signal path sounds better, so some designs are fully DC coupled. So if there is something wrong anywhere in the DC coupled path, you will end up with that DC amplified at the output, which usually causes it to stick to one of the rails as you have found.A working TV?

Re: Sony STR-D365
It looks like the volume ctl circuit is dc blocked via c701,c751 so there may still be a bad connection in the amp section somewhere, time will tell if it acts up again. If there were bad connections on the volume board, I'l bet there are some on the amp board too.Last edited by R_J; 07-09-2015, 04:23 PM.Comment

Buenas mi nombre es carlos me uni al foro porque estoy buscando el schematic de una sony vaio pcg-41217u otras formas de escribirlo son 1p-0117j01-a012 mbx-237 numero de placa revision 1.2 o Sony VPCSB (MBX-237), en fin me gustaria y ayudaria un monton si alguien me puede dar dichi svhematic para hacer las mediciones de una laptop de la mencionada anteriormente(Sony VAIO PCG-41217U) con el fin de repararla dejo de funcionar solo prende el led de la bateria al pulsar el boton de power el disco empiesa a hacer ruido de actividad pero los leds del frontas no reflejan acividad y no enciende la pantalla.... -
Diagnosed this TV as having a failed main board which I've replaced with one from a KDL 55HX850. They are (supposedly) the same board.
Being 'Smart TV' it requires a firmware reboot when you swap out boards such as T-Con or main board. It starts with a black screen and flashing yellow and green LEDS, indicating it needs that firmware boot. The procedure described all over the web is to put the software into the root directory of a FAT32 formatted USB drive and it should load that up once plugged into USB1 port. But not for me. I can see the LED on the USB chip flash for about... -
