From: ladybug on 21 Aug 2006 19:43 I replaced 5 leaky caps that I found but it didn't change anything. I suspect that vertical output IC went kaput. After all it died suddenly without gradual picture srinking. Is it LA7838 chip? Is there a way to test it with multimeter? What is a good place to get a replacement?

What is a good place to get a replacement? If you want serious help, post some specifics. You probably did not get all of the caps that are bad. There will be at least a dozen. Do you have both the 12v and 28v supplies at the output IC? Which caps did you change?

On the IC I have 12v on pin one but no 28v. Is it supposed to be on pin 8? Nothing there.

You have an open current limiter, probably a 1.2 ohm 1/2 watt. And yes, if it's an LA7838 pin 8 is your primary VCC and should be 28 volts or so. www.techdata-kicksass.net

Also trace from c458 to pin 9 was corroded and read open. I got that taken care off. |
