Repairing Toshiba 29″ 2927DE CRT Television

By on April 17, 2008

This Toshiba 29″ 2927DE 29″ CRT TV was collected from a friend’s house. The complain of this TV was no signal-only the blue raster and no sound even with the TV’s antenna connected. For your information i don’t repair television but i do analyze Television circuit, and read TV troubleshooting magazine and book especially the TV Repair book by Homer L Davidson. Since this TV is belong to my friend so I’m doing a favor for my friend to repair the set.

toshiba tv

If a TV set have raster, no picture and no sound chances are high the tuner, IF section or the AGC circuit have problem. Since TV tuner is the easiest to see i started off with the tuner first. As usual in any electronic repair, i would use the handle of my screw driver to knock on the suspected section which is the tuner. Surprisingly i got back the picture and sound the moment i hit the tuner casing. Turning back to see the circuit board, i found a slight dry joint in one of the tuner pins. After resoldering it i thought it would be fine and after hitting the tuner again the same problem arise again. I concluded that it was the tuner internal section that might have dry joints.

I soldered the tuner out again removed both metal covers and began to see with the help of magnifying glass. Ha! got it, found two pins that had very obvious dry joints. After applying fresh solder on all of the internal joints, the bright, nice picture and sound came back again. I just love electronic repair!

      Hi Cedrick,
      Check if the G2 voltage is too high or if the G1 voltage is zero volt. It should not be zero volt.

      Hi Yanyoo,

      Check along the burnt resistor line to see if there is any other component bad. Resistor rarely burn by itself unless if there is something shorted.

      Hi Yanyoo,

      If the fuse blown that you need to check on the component especially semiconductor for short circuit.

          Hi Jhee,

          May I know what have you checked? Usually burnt fuse is due to shorted semiconductor such as shorted bridge rectifier.

    Hi Jestline
    I am looking for someone to help me repair an old CRT tv (I guess more than 10 years easily).  While watching tv, the screen was blackout but we can still hear the audio. Few seconds later, we heard a small explosion inside the TV, audio gone and burnt smell everywhere.  Do you possibly know what is wrong and whether this can be repaired?
    Thank you.

      Hi LIZ,

      It could be flyback transformer problem or the main filter cap already exploded. I suggest that you send to any nearby electronics repair shop for them to check it out.

      Hi Liz,

      It is repairable if there is no components burnt beyond recognition. This means the repairer have to open and check it first.

      Hi nasrul,

      If the power supply output voltages are good and the display still moving then you may need to check on the jungle chip area. Moving can be cause by vertical/horizontal section.

      It could be the fault of TV CPU or eeprom ic. Make sure the both IC are getting the right supply voltage.

          HI Yanyoo,
          If it still blur then the picture tube could have problem. Sometimes the flyaback itself also have problem because it can't produce the 5 to 10kvdc that is required by the tube.

      Hi Yanyoo,
      Standby means either:

      1) CPU IC got 5 volt but cannot send out the "On" signal due to the ic itself have problem or the EEPROM IC have corrupted

      2) CPU IC could send out "On" signal but it can reach the main power supply section due to bad components in the optoisolator ic and surrounding components problem

      3) On signal can reach the main power supply but main power supply it self have bad components like shorted secondary diodes, bad power ic and etc.

      If other input could work like running on a dvd player then you may need to get the schematic to troubleshoot the fault since you have mentioned that you have checked the supply voltage and replaced the tuner.

    Hi Jestine,

    I got a samsung crt tv which has got 320v dc present on the main boosting cap, this voltage also present on the ic collector pin. But there is no voltage on other pins. totally zero.

    I check the 2.2 ohm K bleeder resistor but got 0.7 ohm. What you suggest bro.

    Hi Justine,

    My 29 inch Flat Toshiba CRT color Tv has developed vertical stripes that are prominent on the left side and gradually fade towards the right side of the screen.

    I'm not a TV repair technician, but I have vested interests in TV repair works and given a chance, I would take up the challenge of learning the trade.

    What could be the problem with my TV? Your response will be highly appreciated in this regard.
