    that should be so simple you don't even need schematics.
    also you can take advantage of fact that those are 2 same circuits for 2 channels.
    if one channel works ok then it can help you troubleshoot other.
    other than that you're left with power supply...and pots...

      It is something so simple that I felt embarassed to ask. It is the value of the lamp for the stereo signal which is missing as I removed it many years ago for an ID but now is lost.

        turn it on,tune to a stereo signal,measure voltage.
        iirc the mpx chip can only source about 30 ma to drive the lamp.
        might be a job for an led?

              The stereo output for the indicator light is 15V when full signal. I found a led from a portable tv. I have had no luck finding two 8V x .15w dial light bulbs.

                uses 2 lights?
                try 2 led's in series and a 470 ohm resistor.

                    after the 2nd day, the screen become black (no backlight), there is HDD activity (OS is loading) but no screen on internal panel, VGA and HDMI.

                    Hanmatek HM310T bench PSU - schematics wanted
                    by Dangerousk
                    hey there

                    I picked up a faulty bench PSU that was being discarded as was faulty. So the internal SMPS has some faults, bad thermistor, Schottky rectifier and Mosfets all blown and I have replacement parts on way. fingers crossed 😀

                    I am looking for a set of diagrams for the power supply. has EST v1.15 along with 2022 date. Not sure if the EST refers to Edwards or some other manufacturer.

                    thanks in advance.

                    Sony KDL-46HX850 Can't upgrade/update firmware
                    by dkneyle
                    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...
