Television Repair Career

I just wanted to share some field experience with this blog. The main intention of this blog is to learn and teach.The profession of this electronics is always a challenging one. There is a pressure from customer side. They are very much addicted to the entertainment devices like TV s and Music systems. They always expect speedy service from your side. They also want the device to be repaired perfectly. They also expect you to repair the device if it gets a problem again with in a short period of time with out any payment.

This is one side of the challenge. Another side is the technical one. You need to service them correctly after trouble shooting. But my sincere advice is if you are really capable of doing that you can earn a lot. People don't mind paying any amount of bill if they are satisfied once. Also I advice technicians to learn how to service washing machine and freezers, They are easy to repair and can bring good money also.

And about income, don't run a charity business. Be strict about the financial issues. Also try have good customer links. Once if u find they are good people try give the bes.

They will refer you to other people.

Also distribute hand bills and News paper ads in local market to get more customers. Have visiting cards always with you. When ever you meet new ppl give your card.

The repair career of any electronics is very good if you have a craze for it. Try to be professional always. Always have good relation with other technicians.Always inform the customer about the total bill through telephone if it needs to be of more cost.

The knowledge is your strength.

If you have any queries regarding customer handling please feel free to ask me.

The main reasons for this problem are

1)Strong magnetic field near picture tube.

2)Problem with PTC.

3)Bad degausing coil.

4)Also try to demagnetise the picture tube degausing gun.

5)Finally, a bad picture tube.

Hi Brother,
Right now I have no such information. Surely I will also search for the information and send you the details. Thanks from approaching from India's sister country Pakistan.

Thank you Nawaz.

(Note : This post was a comment from Pakistani. I am intentionally putting this as a post just show that, Being common people we have no hatredness in our hearts. It is the game of poliyicians of both the country)

General troubleshooting approach (1) only red color with white retrace lines on the screen, sound normal

most of the the time the reason for this is red output transistor is shorted

I like to share some ideas with u.
out of three RGB any one transistor is shorted means the screen will turn to the colour of for which it is used.for example red transistor is shorted means the screen will be red with retrace lines.if green is shorted screen will be plain green screen with rtrace lines.in case of humpy it wae blue that was shorted. so blue with retrace lines with blue plain screen.this is for shorted transistors.
if it is open transistor.
if a green output transistor is opened or the problem with green output or driver section.only green part will be missing.remaining picture will be madeup of red and blue.to come to know if it is prblem with out put transistor used in neck PCB just exchange the transistor with each other. ie green with red. so now if green transistor was in problem now it makes red disappear as it goes to red place.
some time by checking with multimeter it will not show error, but in working it will not work this is called as run time error.

Here is "The Software Mail"
