    Pioneer PDP-5070 issue

    Hello there.
    New member, enthusiast. My display just developed an issue that I'm hopeful is addressable via a board(s) replacement. As shown in the attached image, display has a horizontal bar on lower half of screen, with a split image.No blinking LEDs. Based on my rather recent investigation, seems this is likely a lower Scan A assy(buffer board?) fault. Perhaps also Y main drive and Y sub drive?
    Any guidance on a fix/ replacement part(s) and also reputable source of such parts (no way ebay) would be greatly appreciated. I'm aware of the trap switch and also the need to allow for V discharge prior to wrenching on stuff...
    I'm hoping on a fix vs junking the TV, which up until yesterday had an exceptional picture (calibrated, of course).
    Thank you
    Kindest regards
    JB

    This looks like a scan buffer board failure. However before diagnosing this fault make sure to check the panel itself for cracks. I can see a thin black line on the panel which looks to be unilluminated in the fault area. If the panel were to be cracked in that area, you might see this fault. Sometimes, although it is exceedingly rare on well-designed panels like Pioneer ones, the glass can crack under use, and it can be almost invisible if it is right on an edge.

    Example of possible panel crack fault: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e26jLO-kJJQ

      Thank you. I went to re-inspect with a good flashlight, and i indeed see a crack (almost like a bb shot/ star pattern). Panel is toast... thank you for your time and insight.
      Cheers

        That's really sharp eyes there Tom66 to see the unilluminated line in that photo.
        Willing to help but I'm no expert.

          MacBook Air A2337 (820-02016) USB-C Port Issue – Only Works in One Orientation (CC Line Problem?)
          by rounin
          Hi everyone,

          I'm working on a MacBook Air 2020 (A2337, board 820-02016) and running into a strange USB-C issue. I've gone through quite a bit of testing and part replacement, but I'm stuck — hoping someone here can shed some light.

          🛠 Original Issue
          The machine initially wouldn't negotiate 20V over USB-C — stuck at 5V.
          Diagnosis showed PP1V5_UPC0_LDO_CORE shorted to ground.

          I replaced U3100 (UF400) using a donor board (A2179), and the machine powers on fine now.

          ⚠️ New Problem: One USB-C Port Only Works in One Orientation...

          Pioneer A-205 faint noise/hiss issue
          by GraphicMan
          as the title says, i noticed a faint noise/hiss when there is nothing playing that i dont think i have had with this unit before ever, i have not changed its location
          what makes it more weird, this noise is gone almost completely if my hand gets within 5cm or less close to it (close to the panel)!!
          out of curiosity what does that mean?
          thanks

          Hello guys!
          I have a strange issue with my laptop keyboard and I'm lost trying to detect what's wrong - the KB9028Q-C or the keyboard itself.
          It powers on OK and has no other issues except the following:
          • CAPS LOCK does not work at all
          • Fn button toggles Flight Mode
          • When I press 't' or '5', it produces 't5', and when I press 'y' or '6', it produces 'y6'
          • (with SHIFT pressed: 't%' and 'y^' respectively)
          I initially thought it was a keyboard malfunction (internal short, etc.),
          but when I press and hold...

          Bush DLED32287HDCNTDFVP - Is this a screen fault or a Tcon Issue
          by jdawg99
          Hi,

          Trying to fix a bush TV. The Tcon is integrated onto the main board by the looks of it but before I buy a replacement does this look like a screen fault? The lines at the bottom are concerning me. I have check for shorts on the caps etc and can't see anything obvious. Nothing is overly hot and I've tried heating different boards and pressing down on the flex but no change in picture.

          Any advice welcome. Thanks in advance....

          Alienware 15 R2 Service Tag: DL7NN32 ISSUE (Battery is not charging)
          by Simone Vergani
          Hello everyone,

          I'm experiencing an issue with my Alienware 15 R2 (Service Tag: DL7NN32). The laptop works perfectly when connected to the AC adapter — it powers on and functions normally. However, the battery does not charge. If I disconnect the DC adapter, the laptop shuts down immediately, as the battery is at 0%. I have replaced the battery with a new compatible one, but the issue persists. I also replaced the AC adapter with a compatible one, but the battery still doesn't charge.

          To assist with troubleshooting, I'm attaching two power circuit schematics:
