tv blows main fuse when plugged in

Apr 16, 2005 5 Replies

I have a Zenith TV Model #SL2767W which keeps on blowing the main fuse. What could be causing this to blow a fuse every time? Also, where can I get a service manual for this set? Any help would be appreciated

Get your DVM out and look for a S/C component.

Shorted component in the power supply or horizontal scan circuit most likely. You'll have to do some troubleshooting to locate any bad parts, bare minimum you'll need a decent multimeter and soldering equipment.

Zeniths have a lot of trouble. Horizontal output possibly shorted, &, or voltage regulator, could also have bad caps in the regulator circuitry, & resistors. Pix tube can also blow the power supply in some models. Rono.

happen?

then post back with the results of your investigations.

You probably wont need the service manual for such an obvious fault, unless components are burned and you cant see their value.
