1. Check theareaof yourrepair for unsolderedor poorly-soldered
connections. Check theentireboard surfaceforsolder splashes
and bridges.
2. Check the interboard wiring to ensure that no wires are
"pinched" or contact high-wattage resistors.
3. Look for unauthorized replacement parts, particularly
transistors, that were installed during a previous repair. Point
them out to the customer and recommend their replacement.
4. Look for parts which,through functioning, show obvious signs
of deterioration. Point them out to the customer and
recommend their replacement.
5. Check the B+ voltage to see it is at the values specified.
6. Flexible Circuit Board Repairing
• Keep the temperature of the soldering iron around 270˚C
during repairing.
• Do not touch the soldering iron on the same conductor of the
circuit board (within 3 times).
• Be careful not to apply force on the conductor when soldering
or unsoldering.
Unleaded solder
Boards requiring use of unleaded solder are printed with the lead-
free mark (LF) indicating the solder contains no lead.
(Caution: Some printed circuit boards may not come printed with
the lead free mark due to their particular size.)
: LEAD FREE MARK
Unleaded solder has the following characteristics.
•Unleaded solder melts at a temperature about 40°C higher than
ordinary solder.
Ordinary soldering irons can be used but the iron tip has to be
applied to the solder joint for a slightly longer time.
Soldering irons using a temperature regulator should be set to
about 350°C.
Caution: The printed pattern (copper foil) may peel away if the
heated tip is applied for too long, so be careful!
•Strong viscosity
Unleaded solder is more viscous (sticky, less prone to flow) than
ordinary solder so use caution not to let solder bridges occur such
as on IC pins, etc.
•Usable with ordinary solder
It is best to use only unleaded solder but unleaded solder may
also be added to ordinary solder.
SAFETY CHECK-OUT
After correcting the original service problem, perform the following
safety checks before releasing the set to the customer.
SAFETY-RELATED COMPONENT WARNING!!
COMPONENTS IDENTIFIED BY MARK 0OR DOTTED LINEWITH

SERVICE NOTE

1-1. SERVICE NOTE
1. POWER SUPPLY DURING REPAIRS
In this unit, about 10 seconds after power is supplied to the battery terminal using the regulated power supply (8.4V), the power is shut off so
that the unit cannot operate.
These following two methods are available to prevent this. Take note of which to use during repairs.
Method 1.
Use the AC power adaptor (AC-L10, AC-VQ800 etc.).
Method 2.
Connect the servicing remote commander RM-95 (J-6082-053-B) to the LANC jack, and set the commander switch to the “ADJ”side.
2. TOTAKE OUT A CASSETTEWHEN NOT EJECT (FORCE EJECT)
1Refer to section 2-3, 2-4, remove the cabinet (R) block assembly.
2Refer to section 3-2. of SERVICE NOTE, discharge the capacitor of the stroboscope.
3Refer to section 2-5, remove the battery panel assembly.
4Refer to section 2-7, remove the EVF block assembly.
5Refer to section 2-11, remove the DI-088 board.
6Remove the CN2502 (27P, 0.3 mm) of the VC-314 board.
7Open the cabinet (L) block assembly in the direction of the arrow and apply +4.5V to the loading motor from the regulated power supply
to activate the tape unloading.

3. DISCHARGING OFTHE FLASHLIGHT POWER SUPPLY CAPACITOR
The capacitor (ST-076 board C4208) of the flash unit is charged up to the maximum 300V potential. There is a danger of electric shock by
this high voltage when the ST-076 board is handled by hand. The electric shock is caused by the charged voltage which is kept without
discharging when the main power of the unit is simply turned off. Therefore, the remaining voltage must be discharged as described below.
3-1. PREPARINGTHE SHORT JIG
To preparing the short jig. a small clip is attached to each end of a resistor of 1kΩ/1W (1-215-869-11).Wrap insulating tape fully around the
reads of the resistor to prevent electric shock.
3-2. DISCHARGINGTHE CAPACITOR
1Remove the power supply (Battery or AC power adaptor).
2Refer to section 2-3, 2-4, remove the cabinet (R) block assembly.
3Refer to section 2-7, remove the capacitor of the stroboscope block.
4Remove the insulation sheet of the capacitor (C001) of the flash unit (FL4110), and short-circuit between (+) and(–) terminal of the
capacitor with the short jig about 10 seconds.
Or short-circuit between TP4101 and GND (Pin 5of T4101) of the DI-088 board with the short jig about 10 seconds.

4. NOTES ON HANDLING THE LASER DIODE
[LASER UNIT (D001 of FP-665 flexible)]
The laser diode may suffer electrostatic breakdown because of the
potential difference generated by the charged electrostatic load, etc.
on clothing and the human body.
During repair, pay attention to electrostatic breakdown and also use
the procedure in the printed matter which is included in the repair
parts.
The flexible board is easily damaged and should be handled with
care.

Time to Solder 3 seconds
Interval to Solder Next terminal is soldered after
waiting for 1 second
Note: Adjustment is needed when laser unit (D001) is replaced.

2. SELF-DIAGNOSIS DISPLAY
When problems occur while the unit is operating, the counter of the
viewfinder orLCD screen consists ofan alphabet and4-digit number,
which blinks at 3.2Hz. This 5-character display indicates the
“repairedby:”,“block”in which theproblem occurred,and “detailed
code”of the problem.
