Sony KV-1882F flickering image

Post by Retro Mecano »

Hello.

I got in ly hand a very old Sony french CRT with Scart, Ref KV-1882F.

It powers up fine, showing the channel number just fine. As soon as i plug the input, the image starts to go on and off very frequently at random pace. When o power off the input, screen becomes back to stable.

Tried different consoles, snes, megadrive, mvs.. but all the same.

So far a tried following:

- complete clean up.
- tear down and reset all connectors.
- resoldered scat connector pins and some others.
- changed few caps that were a little out of spec.
- turned a little the G2 pot hoping it will help stablize the voltage. (Read it in some forums)
- it seems that recent sony crts have service menu option SSMD that fixed similar problem. Bit this one does not have any service menu.

Thanks for helping me out.
