NOTES  ON  CHIP  COMPONENT  REPLACEMENT
• 

Never reuse a disconnected chip component.

• 

Notice that the minus side of a tantalum capacitor may be dam-
aged by heat.

FLEXIBLE  CIRCUIT  BOARD  REPAIRING
• 

Keep the temperature of soldering iron around 270 °C during 
repairing.

• 

Do not touch the soldering iron on the same conductor of the 
circuit board (within 3 times).

• 

Be careful not to apply force on the conductor when soldering 
or unsoldering.

SAFETY  CHECK-OUT
After correcting the original service problem, perform the follow-
ing safety check before releasing the set to the customer:
Check the antenna terminals, metal trim, “metallized” knobs, 
screws, and all other exposed metal parts for AC leakage.
Check leakage as described below.

LEAKAGE  TEST
The AC leakage from any exposed metal part to earth ground and 
from all exposed metal parts to any exposed metal part having a 
return to chassis, must not exceed 0.5 mA (500 microamperes.). 
Leakage current can be measured by any one of three methods.
1.  A commercial leakage tester, such as the Simpson 229 or RCA 

WT-540A. Follow the manufacturers’ instructions to use these 
instruments.

2.  A battery-operated AC milliammeter. The Data Precision 245 

digital multimeter is suitable for this job.

3.  Measuring the voltage drop across a resistor by means of a 

VOM or battery-operated AC voltmeter. The “limit” indication 
is 0.75 V, so analog meters must have an accurate low-voltage 
scale. The Simpson 250 and Sanwa SH-63Trd are examples 
of a passive VOM that is suitable. Nearly all battery operated 
digital multimeters that have a 2 V AC range are suitable. (See 
Fig. A)

CAUTION
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures 
other than those specifi ed herein may result in hazardous radia-
tion exposure.

The use of optical instruments with this product will increase eye hazard. As the laser 
beam used in this Blu-ray Disc/DVD player is harmful to eyes, do not attempt to 
disassemble the cabinet.
Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.

This label is located on the laser protective housing inside the enclosure.

When the self-diagnosis function is activated to prevent the player 
from malfunctioning, an error code appears in the front panel display, 
or just 

 appears without any messages on the entire screen.

In these cases, check the following.

Depending on the situation, the remedy in “Power” of 
“Troubleshooting” (refer to instruction manual) may solve the problem. 

Exxxx
SYS ERR

Contact your nearest Sony dealer or local authorized Sony 
service facility and give the error code. “xxxx” represents 
an error code (number).

FAN ERR

s Check that the ventilation holes on the rear of the player 

are not blocked.

s Place the player in a location with adequate ventilation 

to prevent heat build-up in the player.

Accessories are given in the last of the electrical parts list.

The laser diode in the optical pick-up block may suffer electro-
static break-down because of the potential difference generated by 
the charged electrostatic load, etc. on clothing and the human body.
During repair, pay attention to electrostatic break-down and also 
use the procedure in the printed matter which is included in the 
repair parts.
The fl exible board is easily damaged and should be handled with 
care.

NOTES  ON  LASER  DIODE  EMISSION  CHECK
The laser beam on this model is concentrated so as to be focused 
on the disc refl ective surface by the objective lens in the optical 
pickup block. Therefore, when checking the laser diode emission, 
observe from more than 30 cm away from the objective lens.

UNLEADED  SOLDER
Boards requiring use of unleaded solder are printed with the lead-
free mark (LF) indicating the solder contains no lead.
(Caution:  Some printed circuit boards may not come printed with 

the lead free mark due to their particular size)

Unleaded solder has the following characteristics.
•  Unleaded solder melts at a temperature about 40 °C higher 

than ordinary solder.

 

Ordinary soldering irons can be used but the iron tip has to be 
applied to the solder joint for a slightly longer time.

 

Soldering irons using a temperature regulator should be set to 
about 350 °C.
Caution: The printed pattern (copper foil) may peel away if 

the heated tip is applied for too long, so be careful!

• Strong 

viscosity

 

Unleaded solder is more viscous (sticky, less prone to fl ow) 
than ordinary solder so use caution not to let solder bridges 
occur such as on IC pins, etc.

•  Usable with ordinary solder
 

It is best to use only unleaded solder but unleaded solder may 
also be added to ordinary solder.

NOTE  WHEN  PARTS  THAT  CANNOT  BE  SUPPLIED  
ARE  REPLACED
There are parts that cannot be exchanged with single parts in this 
set. The following parts are damaged, exchange the entire mounted 
board.
MB-124-MEGA-SM board : IC101, IC102, IC103, IC202, IC203, 

IC307, IC308, IC501, IC502, IC601, 
IC602, IC700, IC701, J801

ABOUT  THE  LENS  CLEANING
Do not do the lens cleaning with the cotton bud etc. It causes the 
trouble. 

NOTE  THE  OPTICAL  PICK-UP  BLOCK  AND  DR-510  
BOARD  REPLACING
Exchange both at the same time when exchange Optical Pick-up 
Block (KES-430A) or DR-510 board.
As for the service parts, these two parts are supplied by the set.

out.

*  When 1080/24p monitor is nothing, 1080i (59.94Hz or 50Hz) 

can use instead of 1080/24p.

 

However this is temporary correspondence.

1.  Select 1080i (59.94Hz or 50Hz).
2.  Play “4.Motion picture”.
3.  Check whether player can play back or not.
 

(Check the picture and sound output)

3. CD (YEDS-18)
Procedure:
Check whether player can play back or not.
(Check the sound output)

4.  HLX-504/505 (NTSC), HLX-506/507 (PAL)
Procedure:
1.  After displayed Main Menu, select “1.Video signal”.
2.  Play “1.Color bar 100%”.
 

(Check the picture and sound output)

3.  Return to Menu.
4.  Play “Demonstration 4:3” or “Demonstration 16:9”.
 

(Check the picture and sound output)
