    Re: Sony RDH-GTK1i/HCD-GTK1i boombox iPod dock volume barely audible

    stj, my hat goes off to you, you are THE man! Happy to report that IC201 was in fact the culprit, with a new one in place I now have a fully functioning boombox!

    Thanks for your time and effort, I truly appreciate it!

            I was shocked myself, I'm in NY and it apparently shipped from GA...UPS Ground...I'm not asking questions!

                Vizio D65x-G4 Volume changes on its own
                by karthur
                On this Vizio D65x, the volume will change on its own. I don't mean like during commercials where the volume will increase. I mean its like the (+) volume button on the remote is pressed and the actual volume dialog is displayed on the screen going up. It will do this, then the volume may start going down. It might go all the way to "0"or it might stop at a different number, then start going back up. The whole time its doing this, the volume dialog is shown on the screen.

                It wont do it until it has been "ON" for 20 or 30 minutes, so it does seem to be heat related....

                Sony HCD-HX80R Amplifier Volume Control Problem
                by crackedprint
                I have a strange fault on a Sony amplifier. The volume control varies the display from MIN, then 1 up to 30 and then MAX as expected. At MIN there is no sound. However, at 1 it is quite loud and increasing above 1 does not change the sound level.

                I have tried a Cold Reset as per the service manual.

                I have looked at the I2C clock and data to volume control chip IC501 (BD3499FV). Data is only sent to IC501 when the volume is set to MIN or 1. At any other setting no data is sent to IC501.

                I have looked all the way through the service manual and tried many online...

                Marantz SR5007 popping on volume change and mute in Direct Mode
                by BigOof
                Hi,

                I bought a used Marantz SR5007 and it's giving me some issues that I can't seem to really place. It functions well in most settings, ARC mostly works, it has no issues driving my speakers in any of the digital input modes, but I'm having issues running analog inputs in direct or pure direct mode. For some reason in this mode there's distortion for every volume increment I give it, but once the volume is stable it has no issues. Muting creates a loud pop, switching to another source also causes a pop and so does turning off the amp in that mode. Again, no issue in the digital modes....

                Samsung Soundbar Q900T Cuts Off if Volume above 30
                by Storyteller12
                I have this soundbar and when I turn it on it works until I turn the volume above 30.
                Then the display show “PROT” protection and shuts off.

                I can turn it right back on and it works until volume hits 30 again.

                There is a little static on the surround speakers so I unplugged them but still have same problem. I tried unplugging all speakers also and when volume goes above 30 it shuts off.

                I can turn the volume above 30 if nothing is playing but as soon as I play something it shuts off.

                It will play fine for hours with volume...

                iPod nano G3 - alternative soldering point for the white battery wire
                by Norrecito
                Hi,

                A friend of mine gave me an iPod nano G3 to see if I can fix it for him.

                The device had a faulty battery and he tried to replace it but failed. In the process he managed to pull off the pads that corresponds to the white battery wire (marked with a red circle in the images)....from both sides of the PCB. Fortunetely he didn't damage anything else.
                This is usually an easy fix HOWEVER, on the PCB, I see no traces coming from the VIA and after searching the internet, I've found no schematics nor boardview for this device. With the pads gone from both sides I seem...
