      Your 3.4V is fine then, the ON signal is >=2V which is good. I suspect the main board...

        Hmm, I was hoping for better news!

        Which main board is it? - I'm assuming the sound board is where the P202 connector and wires run to on the right?

        TV picture seems to be fine so it would be a bit of a disappointment if I can't fix it!

          If I'm right about this TV it has a board with scart and audio on it and one with HDMI on it? I have a spare board for it, but I'm away from home right now.

            Hi

            Yes sounds about right, I've snapped a pic of it for you with the boards and the back panel on. It also has PC - serial and optical on it along with PCMCIA.

            Which board do you have and how much do you want for it?

            Shame when TVs like this go wrong, it seems pretty nice but people don't seem interested in repairing them anymore. I got given this by someone who didn't want it due to the sound distortion - he has a TV repair shop just round the corner!

              I've got that same board, I go back in three weeks but I can ask my dad about it. I would only want £10 for it as it's just taking up space and anything saved from landfill is good. I also might have the large digital main board but I can't remember if I used that.

                Ok mate, if you could ask him that would be great! Does it definitely work?

                I'll keep an eye on this thread

                    Also my 5th LED isn't lit up just like tmcw's TV

                    PSU buzzes very slightly but nothing I'd call alarming..
                    As Tom said, the set will get the Freeview channels, but not any of the HD channels, just the SD channels.

                    I never got the 5th LED to light up, so if you figure it out, please do let us know.

                    I know it's been a while since I started the thread and got my TV working, but I only began using it in the past few weeks, and like yourself, noticed that there is a buzzing noise from the set. But in my case, it's not from the PSU, but seems to be coming from somewhere near the middle of the mainboard. But to confound matters, it seemed to be coming only on certain AV selections, for example, I get a low pitched buzz on DTV/TV/AV3, a higher pitched tone from AV1/AV2 and when on the rest (SAV2/AV4/COMP/RGB/HDMI/DVI), the set is silent.

                    Then on the ones that are buzzing, I found that going into the menu>picture>psm, and switching to Dynamic or Mild, the buzzing goes away. Further messing and I found that going into the user1 or user2 settings and playing with the contrast value in particular could make the set whine high or low, or go silent.

                    I don't think the buzzing on mine ever came from the PSU, even before changing the caps.

                    Have no idea if this is normal behaviour or not, but would be happy to hear of anyone elses observations.

                      Also, forgot to say that even though 4 Sanwha caps were bulging, I did get an ESR meter later in the summer, and tested them, and they tested ok.

                      For me, changing the caps near the 3 connectors was what sorted the distored sound. As mentioned in post 3 above, I was changing them one at a time and testing, but got fed up with that, and just changed them all, bar 2 I think were associated with the 19V line.

                      Are you getting the 6V where it's expected? I think that's related to the sound, so fixing that might restore your sound.

                        Not checked the 6V (dumb of me wasn't it) but will do that at some point.

                        Reason I've not checked? - The damn thing is on a bay window ledge, the markings are upside down (despite the bottom of the TV being at my side of the ledge) and it's quite a back straining excercise reaching over with a mag glass, reading them upside down while holding a torch and two MM probes! Ok, whinge over I'll get onto that in a bit..

                        EDIT: Actually, I got a feeling I did test them yesterday but only on one connector.. ah well I'll test em all again

                          6V on all 3 connectors is ok but there is a hissing / buzzing coming from the big yellow transformer area. Not sure if its the transformer itself or the caps. Would changing those out make any difference? - I can't see it myself but thought I'd ask.

                            It's pretty typical for SMPS transformers to buzz.

                              One other thing, with the volume low there is no distortion. Turn it up and it gets worse the louder the volume is.

                              Is that significant in any way?

                                The amplifier is clipping. Maybe it isn't getting the right voltage?

                                  Well I've checked the voltages that are marked and they're all ok. There are a few other weird ones marked out

                                  P201:
                                  DIM
                                  BRI
                                  ERR
                                  I
                                  ACD

                                  P202:
                                  Seems to be the connector for the sound board but no weird markings on this one. Checked the voltages on the connecter on the board itself and they all seem to be there but I only have a MM - no scope

                                  Any idea what causes clipping apart from voltage? - tom has offered to help in a few weeks with another board but obviously if I can get it fixed up before then I'd like to try!

                                  Maybe I should look at turning it into a wall mounted PC monitor

                                      I forgot I've got an extra week here . I go back on the 8th of December. I'll check around then, it's in the shed somewhere.

                                          Hi tom!

                                          Any luck? (sorry to be pushy but the TV is in bits all over the window ledge and living room lol!)

                                            Yamaha RX V675 sound issues
                                            by jjne
                                            I have an old Yamaha RX V675 receiver which is starting to develop issues with the sound, although it doesn't quite match up with what folk normally report with these.

                                            From cold, the sound cuts in and out. When this happens the amp is losing sync with the optical input (speaker graphic disappears from the front panel). But this is not resolved by putting the unit into pure direct mode. After a couple of minutes this resolves, although there are occasional clicks from the speakers after that.

                                            At first I thought it was either a speaker relay or the DSP, but I don't think...

                                            so i took out one of my spare gigabyte ep35-ds3r mobos from storage for use to do some cpu, ram and video card testing of stuff i bought from ebay and got for free from momaka. he bought 50 e8400 cpus for cheap from ebay some years ago and i decided to help him relieve him of some of his supply since he had waaaay too many!! what did we say about hoarding too much stuff and depriving others of them?! *cough* socialism *cough* lol!

                                            i had to blow some dust off the board and heatsinks with the datavac as i didnt clean it up before putting it in storage. after finishing...

                                            Marantz SR5012 popping and other sound issues
                                            by acedogblast
                                            Hello I have a Marantz SR5012 7.1 AV receiver that is producing speaker pop and other sound issues. These sounds are coming out of all connected speakers regardless if they are configured to be used. The rca preouts are clean from these defects so I am assuming the problem has to be with the amplifier.
                                            These sound issues are random and unpredictable. There are times where the unit can go 10 minutes without any problems then suddenly the problems come back. It doesn't seem to matter if there is sound being played or not.

                                            I have disassembled the unit and was able to take out the...

                                            by LEECH666
                                            Good day ladies and gentleman!

                                            I am currently trying to repair a Grundig Vision 9 37 9880 T USB LCD TV for a friend that has a weird audio problem. Basically everything works fine except for the heavily distorted sound when the Subwoofer module is connected and there is a buzzing sound coming from the PSU PCB.

                                            This seems to be a rather rare TV so there is not much prior on topic help to be found however a service manual is available at the usual sources (Electro Tanya i.e.).

                                            I think the PSU buzzing comes from one of the coils near the bridge rectifier but...

                                            Asus UX3402 / Q409Z - No sound, no TPM, Boot issues: Bios flash?
                                            by i19
                                            Hi
                                            I got an Asus UX3402 / Q409Z and after a BSOD I lost sound, tpm 2.0, and if it turns off it can take HOURS before I can boot again.

                                            Reading here and on reddit I figured its a BIOS issue, and that reflashing it may fix the problem.

                                            I want to use an CH341A (new model with 3.3v) to flash it.

                                            My problem is that I'm not sure if the SOIC8/SOP8 clips will attach to the chip and hold properly? (haven't opened my laptop yet, I'm basing this assumption on a picture from the same thread I attached).

                                            Any tips on how to connect to it? Maybe something...
