Odd RCA 32" fault.

Feb 07, 2007 2 Replies

Model # F32665, Chassis # CTC 203CH3, at turn on, high voltage comes right up, & the set shuts right down again, & sometimes tries to start



2, or 3 times, or will continue to start, & shut right down again. After much troubleshooting, I found the F2 PIP board (audio/video module) to be the problem. Unplug it, & the set works, but of course just with a blank raster, & won't switch from tuner to audio/video. The part is NLA at my usual suppliers, & will try to rebuild it. Has anyone seen this fault? I have seen it twice in the last year or so. Thanks for your input, Dani.

PTS may have the board.It sounds like a an AC short/leak or open filter cap My suggestion is to signal trace from the point the signal enters to the point it disappears. I vaguely recall bypassing the PIP board.,but I don't remember the particulars you might try a search for how to bypass the PIP or other words to that effect
