We had this TV. It was a gift when my parents bought their 1978 Ford Capri. It lasted with no issues until the mid 90’s and then it disappeared. It probably still worked. I remembered I could plug my headphones into the front of it.
Wow been a long time since I could raise 15 inches, matter of fact I don't believe I ever could; well there was this one time with a neighbor girl.....
Hitachi's were always my favorite when I worked as a bench tech. I love the metal frame the main PCB is mounted to. I think this helped solder issues, which Hitachi never really had. none of other manufactures have this feature that I know.
Adorei a propaganda do Flex Paste, aqui no Brasil não temos isso. Congratulations from Brazil to american friends and Shango, your youtube channel is the best. My father worked in a Philips electronics workshop in the 70's, and (he has 68 years old), I growed up inside there (I'm 44 years old). I love smell soldering. I'm working with electronic, but is a just hobbie, I'm theacher in Unversity Federal Tecnological Of Paraná. I love your english speach becaus is easy to me understand you.
They make several different versions of Flex Seal Products, including tape, and I've used the original white colored Flex Seal in a can around the base of a leaking toilet as a temp fix till I could pull it up to for total repair at work(replaced the wax ring with a rubber one, and the inside parts as of the tank as well with Korky pars that don't move like an old school kit for good measure while I was at it), and it did the trick, and I can also vouch for the Flex Seal that comes in the paint style cans as well, as I had a leaking window on my RV, and used it make a small bead around the outside edge of the window(White color as well), and so far for a year no leaks.
Wow what a difference one little capacitor made... Some shops would charge at least a couple hundred bucks for that job. Looking forward to that movie length Sony repair video you mentioned. Happy Sunday.
And, claim that they did a lot more work than what was actually done. There was one shop in my area who pulled crap like that, and he eventually went out of business. It couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.
Digital converter boxes brought life back to these old Analog TVs. Everything on TV is probably copyrighted. But you do have Fair use in your favor. Your 31 minute final video was very good, just about right. Good job! I was in TV repair when these TVs were new. I don't miss it at all.
Agreed digital converter boxes are awesome, so are Roku Express+ boxes that have Composite Stereo output via a ring tip to RCA Cable. I use a 3910RW Roku Express+ with my early 00''s Panasonic 27in curved glass CRT TV I have in the corner of my game room for retro gaming next to my 50in HDTV, and it works great for when I want to watch say a 2nd college football game, or 2 wrestling shows at once, I just plug it into the composite jacks on the front, as the back is taken up by component cables going to a component switcher that connects to my game consoles, along with the Stereo composite output that goes into my 5.1 Dolby Digital+ surround sound setup. BTW the Roku 3910RW is the last ROKU Express+ they made can outputs 480p via composite, and is new enough to support streaming apps like Peacock, as I have an older once on 24in monitor at work 37XX(forget the exact numbers ATM) hooked up via HDMI, and using the RCA to a pair of powered stereo speakers, and it does not support Peacock. so if you can snatch a 3910RW up do so.
why not see if you can measure the resistors on that unobtainable vertical module. and record them on your sams schematic. Seeing you have a working one in front of you. Buy the way. Thanks for all you do Rock on
I was 10 in 78. I would have a completely different view of tv with this beauty. We had a Trutone 15 inch B&W. My dad finally bought a color tv when I left home at 18, lol. I took the B&w to college.
Thanks to you and Jordan Pier I am learning about how old CRT'S work, the many circuit designs and what could go wrong with them and how capacitors behave over time and you seem put a lot of effort in it.
Oh man, you're such a tease! Telling me there's a feature length tricky solid-state repair marathon coming soon, I'm gonna be counting the hours to see that one even if I do have to watch it in sections. Always enjoy the full-on journey through the diagnostic thinking and trial/error, your attitude and tenacity fixing these things honestly inspires me & without getting even more stalky-doodledoo superfan on yo' a$$ than already done, want to just thank you again for sharing your experience and thought processes with us.
I still think that it is amazing that an analog TV can produce such an image. In my country, there is no analog TV broadcasting anymore, but I use my 14" Sony with a vintage computer now. The TV still works perfectly since I got it in 1994!
I just noticed back on Wednesday that Radio Disney ended on KRDC 1110 AM which was April 14th, it is now a sports station where it is simulcasting ESPN LA from 710 AM KSPN. You should explain about it in the next video on radio repairing.
Sir your a genius TV man for the vintage TV's I have been watching your videos from since two years I like your one of 1977 Sony 15inch TV restoration video. Great sir I am inspired and your my inspiration. Lots of Thanks to making these inspirational video.
Nicely done sir. that set was really looking like horsecrap. and yeah i love how the cap wasn't bulging to be dead. and even though the tester showed the tube to not be the best, you'd never know by looking at the picture. dynamite looking CRT on that thing. I used to do TV repair back in the 80's. this one would had me pulling my hair out. now i want to buy some flex paste.
I appreciate the fault-finding videos. Please keep 'm coming. Can't wait for that long Sony video you promised at the end. I don't know about others but for me, I like the whole videos best. I don't like it when the diag-repair-process has been cut up in different parts.
29:12 I agree with you so much about this! See we have all the technology to have cinema-size screens with unseen details at home, and at the end there is just no content worth to watch it... sad.
brings back memories worked in my dads shop from 1978 to 2006, he did Hitachi and Goldstar warranty work on this vintage (Goldstar started by using Hitachi chassis 2nds for their tvs a far cry from the LG reinvention they made in the 2000's) At least this wasn't the series that needed all of the ceramic caps replaced to keep the scan from cutting the CRT neck. Surprising any one has one of these they want to fix these ultrasonic sets with limited tuner dropped in popularity of repair by the mid 80's and I can't reacal seeing one past the early 90's. They at least had the sense to overrate most of the caps and move them away from the heat sinks but I've also run into equipment that once its more than 20 you end up replacing a large portion of the electrolytics, the glue from this era (mid 70-80) on may brands tends to go dark conductive and corrosive which adds a whole additional layer of 'fun' to try to find the problem....
Wow it's really vintage in counting sir, you're definitely right CRT might end of service but I believe you still have technique to rejuvenate that one sir.yes sir if the owner wants this crt to restore in its original status the only way is to replace it. Watching from Phil.
Over here in the UK, I’ve a pretty similar set, complete with the remote control shown in your SAMS (its the TV on the bottom in my PFP, not that you can see it too well) Had the exact same issue, and was of course a 4.7uF cap at fault. Fixed that instantly
Trash TV is the same the world over I'm afraid. Yep super interested in the sony repair. Many years ago I fixed a 29inch street find unit and it took several expensive horizontal transistors until I located the the root problem. It ended up being my main TV and was only retired when I got a flat screen. Because I really only started learning how to fix these things just before they became obsolete I find these videos fascinating now.
Excellent video, thanks for sharing my morning coffee with me. Got up at 4:30 AM this morning, I was dreaming of my late wife, woke with tears in my eyes. Damn how long does this grief take to get over? Oh well part of life I guess at east that's what my Doctor keeps telling me as he gives me more pills to try and make a zombie out of me instead of a blubbering fool of an old man.
I have a 1972 Hitachi model CNU-881 similar in size to the 78 model I retired it in the early 2000's when the picture tube was getting too dark, a worn out CRT I assume. The sound stopped working in the late 80's but used my VCR and better sounding stereo for audio I grew up with this TV watching The last Moon landing, The Watergate Scandal, loads of Saturday morning cartoons, iconic 70's and 90's TV shows, 911 attacks.
cool video ! You can measure these electrolytic problems with a scope on the suspected dc-line and you'll see the high ac-H-impulse...waveform on the dc-line that causes the darkening/whitening. Its important to set this in a relation to the dc-level: the height of the ac-voltage can be in a lower %-range of the dc-level ... sure you know that ...
Damn that thing brings back memories. Watched 6 Million Dollar Man, Battlestar Galactica, Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom, and Saturday morning cartoons on that exact TV.
in 1978 I was 36 years old, and repairing a lot of these Color TVs. That CRT is not bad for a 43 year old tube. By the way I still have a CRT tester that would test that tube.
I remember the Australian version of those TV's. Besides the vertical thick film failing occasionally, the most common problem I saw was one of the heaters in the picture tube would intermittantly go open, causing it to lose one colour. From memory the tubes in them had a unique pinout, so you couldnt even find a good used replacement tube.
Wow, LA really has a ton of OTA TV, here in DC we only have about 40-something channels, some of which are repeats. At the very least, we have an ATSC 3.0 channel on the air now
LA had 40-50 channels when it was analog. Now, they have over 100 with digital. They’re almost all on Mount Wilson, which is almost 6000 feet above sea level. Pretty much a perfect setup.
22:14 That is normal. Components were often glued to keep them in place. Notice all the components that are sticking up on the board. That was an effort to prevent breakage.
When Shango repairs antique radios I'm amazed to hear the Disney channel. For some reason I expect Benny Goodman music. However, he musta fixed this set correctly. It's made in Taiwan and there's actual Asians on the programs.
Basically it's assembled in Taiwan since the CRT was made in Japan probably along with most of the Chassis like my 9 inch color Hitachi made in Singapore with a Made in Japan CRT.
I should admit that flex seal distracted me a bit :D Thanks for the cap repair 👍 curious why the tube test wasn't that relevant compared to the outcome quality
Another great Video from Shango066 to brighten my Sunday I guess he must have been watching my video's when I cough my guts out hahaha I love the humour.
Funny uncle with rubber paste. )) While I was watching a video about flex paste .. I got an idea how you can use this paste from a more advantageous side. It is more convenient to coat the bottom of the car with this paste. Creating a moisture-proof, anti-gravel and at the same time noise-insulating coating. This is assuming flex paste is a cheap alternative to car-grade coating. Well, as an experiment. )))
Flyback generates voltage pulses with each horizontal retrace. CRT capacitance filters the HV but you need filter caps for all the other voltages. If the 200V or screen tap has a bad cap, by the end of the scan the voltages will sag. 200V through the RGB output transistors will bias the guns off, so if it's low the guns float to a white raster on the right.
This thing is built a lot like my 19" hitachi tv made in 1985. They must have moved production to the US later for their 19" and bigger sets since mine is made in the US. I saw the EIA code on the picture tube in mine was a GE tube.
Wohoo I was right! Changed literally thousands of those.
We had this TV. It was a gift when my parents bought their 1978 Ford Capri. It lasted with no issues until the mid 90’s and then it disappeared. It probably still worked. I remembered I could plug my headphones into the front of it.
Probably outlived the Ford Crappy.
Sorry, have a bad attitude to them since my first Hillman Avenger got rammed up the arse by one.
Flex Seal followed by an ED commercial - thank you for another classic repair test.
Flex seal would cure your ED permanently.
at 28:00 it went straight from an 'erectile dysfunction' video to Shango saying 15 inches!
Richard, UK
Wow been a long time since I could raise 15 inches, matter of fact I don't believe I ever could; well there was this one time with a neighbor girl.....
😃😃
I just watched more television broadcast programming in this video than I have in the past 10 years.
Same here.
DVD an VHS only since 2007.
No regrets.
Watching you repair a tv Is a hell of a lot more interesting than what they put on tv these days .Bring on the Sony repair !
Hitachi's were always my favorite when I worked as a bench tech. I love the metal frame the main PCB is mounted to. I think this helped solder issues, which Hitachi never really had. none of other manufactures have this feature that I know.
I like to look at the inside too. That's usually more interesting than what's on the screen.
That's why physical media is a must!
especially these days

Off to buy 2 pallets of Flex-Paste now so I can build a boat.
Flex Paste on TV - better than cigarette paste _in_ TV.
I wonder if flex paste could be used to properly insulate a flyback transformer
What is flex paste made of? Would flex paste be heat resistant?
Haha - brilliant question !!
A whole new market for them..."And now, for the electronics geeks, a transformer... POTTED IN FLEXPASTE!"
