No video/audio output on Mitsubishi VS-582R
Hello,
I'm looking for some troubleshooting help on a Mitsubishi VS-582R. There is no video or audio at all. I believe that there may be a humming noise present, but that may have been there all along and was masked by normal usage. I DAGS but only found convergence problems mentioned. Does anyone have any pointers as to what to look for or check? Also, am I correct in assuming that there is some sort of lamp present seeing as how it is a rear projection TV? Thanks in advance to anyone who posts a reply here. Peter --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).

Sure, it has a lamp just like the overhead projectors used in schools.
NOT. Time to call on a professional who is experienced with repairing electronics, specifically RPTV sets for an estimate. From your posting it is probably highly dangerous for you to attempt any repair on that tv set. David "Peter Bogiatzidis" wrote in message .com...

Thanks in advance to anyone who posts a reply here. Peter That's a CRT projector as are most PTV's, there's no lamp, just three very bright monochrome picture tubes, one for each color. Since you have no audio or video it sounds like there's either a power supply problem, or the set is detecting a fault and shutting down. There's really no way to tell without looking at it and taking some measurments. If you don't know what you're doing, as seems to be the case, take it to a pro, projection sets are much more complex and finicky than direct view TV's, there's nothing you can do without proper tools and training aside from breaking it worse. If you still can't resist opening the back absolutely *DO NOT* start fiddling with random adjustments as people often do. |

Actually, on this set, you can make a rapid and safe diagnosis by removing the
front speaker panel, and looking for a 1.6 amp fuse near the front left area of the set; if it's open, you need either a yoke or a flyback; OK and the power supply is most likely the problem....this fuse carries B+ (over 100 volts) to the horizontal output and flyback. |
