Diagnostic Test Indicators
When an error occurs, the POWER LED will flash a set number of times to indicate the possible cause of the problem. If there is more than one error, the LED will identify the first of the problem areas. If the errors occur simultaneously, the one that corresponds to the fewest fl ashes is identified first. Results for all of the following diagnostic items are displayed on screen. No error has occurred if the screen displays a “0”.

SONY TV SERVICE TIPS
SONY K KV27S45
AUDIO PROBLEM
Unit has a very rapid change in volume when
increasing the level from minimum to 4 notches above minimum
SOLUTION
Needs to add a resistor in parallel with R432 to
effectively reduce the value of R432. This changes the voltage divider ratio to
the volume control circuit and makes the volume circuit more linear in
operation.
SONY KV32S65
AUDIO PROBLEM
Sound and picture is fine but when the fixed or
variable audio out is connected to an external audio amp and the set is muted a
loud pop is heard in the right channel.
SOLUTION
Try to measure if there was any DC voltages that
resided on the Variable audio output connectors. There was "4.5"
volts on the Right channel and "0" volts on the left channel. When
the "Mute" transistors on the variable line triggered they pulled
both lines to ground. When the external amp was connected to this circuit the
input capacitor for the right channel charged with this 4.5 volts. Still had
audio on this line even though it was at a 4.5 vdc potential. But when the Sony
muted, the input capacitor inside the Big External amp discharged and caused a
tremendous pop. C172 is a .47mfd used to decoupling the audio from IC101 the
Variable audio control IC. This capacitor had 4.5 vdc on each leg measured to
ground. Removing the capacitor and measuring the DC resistance across the cap
measured 175 ohms. Replacement of the capacitor corrected the symptom
