in my experience, the more common problem with my sonys is... the power switch!
for some reason, madali siyang masira.. fortunately, madali ring gawin.
sabi nga ng isang tech, lagyan ko na lang ng mechanical toggle switch, at forever fixed na siya.. heh heh.
common..
fuses,protector diode or protector capacitors..resistors.
lahat yan sa power supply section ,dun ka muna mag concentrate mag trouble shoot
Sad to say, hindi nakakabit sa AVR or surge suppressor yung TV nung kumidlat. Bumili kami ng surge suppressor na Monster Cable HT850 with lifetime warranty. Galing na ako sa service center, ito yung charges:
PhP440 kapag nagpahome service
PhP880 to PhP1100 labor charge depending on tv model and size
PhP600 checkup fee
lifetime warranty... does that mean the warranty is over once it breaks down and dies? heh heh. joke.
i recommend dalhin mo na sa shop. mahirap yang sa bahay gagawin..
serviceman arrives.. open up tv.. diagnose and identify part to replace.. go to parts store.. come back with replacement.. wrong part pala.. go back out.. come back.. hassle!!
tekateka... check up fee and labor are different? why naman? how will repairman know what part to replace, if he didn't check it up? andisn't check up part of the labor?
ang tandako.. yung check up fee is credited as part of the labor fee once the transaction is completed..
Sir Dr. D, dinala at iniwan ko na sa service center, 2-3 days daw malalaman yung defective parts na kailangang palitan.
Doon sa Monster Cable HT850, may 5 years warranty sa lahat ng appliances na nakakabit sa surge protector. Monster company will pay for damages or replacement. Lifetime warranty, once the device is damaged, they will replace it with a new one, same model or newer model.
Checkup fee will be charged if hindi namin pinatuloy ang repair.
Hindi ko naitanong pero dapat waived na ang checkup fee at labor cost na lang ang babayaran kapag pinatuloy namin ang pagrepair. Sa Sony Service Center po ito.
Checkup fee para dun sa tech na nag trace ng cause ng problem.
Labor charge dun sa nag install ng new component at burn-in test ng tv.
Usually switching power supply lang problema nyan. Sa service center tamad tech kaya palit assembly lagi, ganoon na rin sa raon swap board ang ginagawa.
