We have completed a comprehensive service on the Technics SU-Z65 Integrated Amplifier.

The unit's function switches were intermittent, and the bass, treble, and balance controls exhibited scratchy operation, with a noticeable loss of left channel sound output.

As per the customer's request, we performed a thorough service and replaced all electrolytic capacitors, including the two main power supply filter capacitors.

A meticulous inspection for dry solder joints was conducted, and any issues found were rectified. All switches and pots were treated with contact cleaner.

On the bench today an Epson 4K Projector exhibiting one red vertical line on the screen, caused by a faulty LCD Optical Block Assembly.

Replacement of the faulty optical block assembly requires a thorough and comprehensive disassembly of the unit.

A new optical block has been installed, and all fans and main filters have been cleaned, thereby restoring the projector to optimal working condition.

Repair: Resolving ๐—ฃ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐˜๐—ฒ๐—ฐ๐˜ Mode Issue. A Sony Multi-Channel AV Receiver, model STR-KM7600, was presented with a fault where it would switch off shortly after operation and display 'Protect'.

Following thorough disassembly and fault diagnosis, a defective -7 volt regulator was identified as the primary cause for the amplifier's shutdown and protect mode activation.

Replacing the faulty regulator and performing a comprehensive service successfully restored the amplifier to perfect working condition.

The unit, presenting with no power, underwent fault finding which revealed the main power supply board as the source of the problem.

Upon closer inspection after removal, a faulty capacitor in the primary stage of the power supply was identified as the root cause. Specifically, a 47uf capacitor had degraded to 28.8uf, causing the power supply failure.

Replacement with a new capacitor rectified the issue, restoring the mixer's operation.

As capacitors age, they can experience leakage, tolerance drift, and capacitance value deviation, ultimately leading to faults such as power interruptions, popping, buzzing, and humming noises.

Replacement of multiple faulty capacitors in the power supply stage has successfully restored the subwoofer to optimal performance.

On the bench today a 1981 Japanese manufactured Luxman Stereo Cassette Deck for refurbishment due to worn belts.

A comprehensive service was conducted, encompassing the replacement of all belts and thorough cleaning of all belt pulleys, capstan shaft, pinch roller, and audio heads. Additionally, a tape head demagnetiser was utilised, and all potentiometers and switches were treated with contact cleaner.

Consequently, the Cassette Deckโ€™s performance has been restored to optimal level.

Two QSC K10.2 powered speakers exhibiting identical faults were examined, featuring illuminated green signal LEDs without sound output.

Diagnostic analysis revealed a malfunctioning power supply stage due to four faulty SMD components: shorted diodes D36 and D20, a shorted transistor Q16, and open circuit fuse F1 located in the +15volt supply stage.

Replacement of these components restored both speakers to optimal operation.
