Beovision LX 2802

13th August 2009

This set suffered from EW distortion (e.g. an hourglass-shaped picture) when cold that could be cleared by a sharp tap on the rear cover near the timebase / power supply panel (PCB 4). Clearly a dry joint was to blame but where? Everything looked sound but when the iron was touched on the pins of 4C43 the solder fell away, indicating that a good contact had not been being made. Resoldering cleared the fault. [Beovision LX 2802]
