The units in this manual contain a self-diagnosis function. If an error occurs, the STANDBY (1) indicator will automatically
begin to flash. A description of the self diagnosis function is explained in the instruction manual.
The number of times the STANDBY (1) indicator flashes translates to a probable source of the problem. If an error
symptom cannot be reproduced, the remote commander can be used to review the failure occurrence data stored in
memory to reveal past problems and how often these problems occur.

When an errors occurs, the STANDBY (1) indicator will flash a set number of times to indicate the possible cause of the
problem. If there is more than one error, the indicator will identify the first of the problem areas.

Result for all of the following diagnosis items are displayed on screen. No error has occured if the screen displays a “0”.

Symptoms

• Power does not come on.
• No power is supplied to the

TV.

• AC power supply is faulty.

• Power does not come on.
• Load on power line is

shorted.

• Has entered standby state

after horizontal raster.

• Vertical deflection pulse is

stopped.

• Power line is shorted or

power supply is stopped.

• No raster is generated.
• CRT cathode current

detection reference pulse
output is small.

• Power is shut down shortly,

after this return back to
normal.

• Detect Micro latch up.

Note 1: If a + B overcurrent is detected, stoppage of the vertical deflection is detected simultaneously.

The symptom that is diagnosed first by the microcontroller is displayed on the screen.

Note 2: Refer to screen (G2) Adjustment in section 3-4 of this manual.

* R(Q703), G(Q702) or B(Q701) out is faulty (C6 board).
