From: Jason D. on 2 Oct 2006 14:28 PDP-504PU (Type: TUCK) Just called and they don't support plasma (huh?). Our shop is pioneer authorized shop and downloaded that service manual to look for info on clear the TRAP trip flag. Got it that, clearing TRAP section but huh? No info on entering into factory service mode in order to clear this TRAP flag. The FSM says have to enter into service mode first via jig or remote (even service manual left out the details for entering into service mode by substituting that with "Know-how"!). Due to nature of this sensitive info due to DMCA thing, best to email me directly. Thanks & Cheers, Wizard

Apparently one TV I have (Konka) to get into service I need to open the remote and look for an 'extra' button!
From: tomh on 3 Oct 2006 12:45 a Sony service guy I know is convinced there's "life" timer somewhere in the software that causes the units to just plain quit after a length of time. > > Our shop is pioneer authorized shop and downloaded that service manual > to look for info on clear the TRAP trip flag.

This Just reflects poorly on the mental make up of the designers and top shots in these organisations, they obviously lack a conscience and have issues with morality. I've convinced 8 customers ever since that pioneer and jvc are bad buys and succesfully diverted them to other brands. So you wanna mess with us techies huh ?.

I remember this was a joke article in Radio Electronics maybe 40+ years ago - the "Little Wonder" TV would burn a VOID message on its own screen if tampered with. |
