1.
Check the area of your repair for unsoldered or poorly-soldered
connections.  Check the entire board surface for solder splashes
and bridges.
2.
Check the interboard wiring to ensure that no wires are
"pinched" or contact high-wattage resistors.
3.
Look for unauthorized replacement parts, particularly
transistors, that were installed during a previous repair.  Point
them out to the customer and recommend their replacement.
4.
Look for parts which, through functioning, show obvious signs
of deterioration.  Point them out to the customer and
recommend their replacement.
5.
Check the B+ voltage to see it is at the values specified.
6.
Flexible Circuit Board Repairing
• Keep the temperature of the 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 following
safety checks before releasing the set to the customer.

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.)
 : LEAD FREE MARK
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 flow) 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.
CAUTION
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced.
Replace only with the same or equivalent type.
Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.

1. SERVICE  NOTE
1-1. POWER  SUPPLY  DURING  REPAIRS
In this unit, about 10 seconds after power is supplied to the battery terminal using the regulated power supply (8.4 V), the power is shut off so
that the unit cannot operate.
These following method is available to prevent this.
Method:
Use the AC power adaptor (AC-L200C/L200D).
1-2. PRECAUTION  ON  REPLACING  THE  VC-554  BOARD
DESTINATION DATA
When you replace to the repairing board, the written destination data of repairing board also might be changed to original setting.
Start the Adjust Manual in the Adjust Station and execute the “DESTINATON DATA WRITE”.
RESTORE DATA
When you replace to the repairing board, get the data from the former one.
Start the Adjust Manual in the Adjust Station and perform “RESTORE DATA” to get the data.
The data getting for this model is as follows.
• USB SERIAL No.
USB SERIAL No.
The set is shipped with a unique ID (USB Serial No.) written in it.
This ID has not been written in a new board for service, and therefore it must be entered after the board replacement.
Start the Adjust Manual in the Adjust Station and execute the “USB SERIAL No. INPUT”.
1-3. USING  SERVICE  JIG
Connect the extension cable (J-6082-698-A) between CN1111 on the DA-044 board and CN1014 on the VC-554 board.

1-4. SELF-DIAGNOSIS  FUNCTION
1-4-1. Self-diagnosis Function
When problems occur while the unit is operating, the self-diagnosis
function starts working, and displays on the LCD screen what to
do.
Details of the self-diagnosis functions are provided in the Instruction
manual.
1-4-2. Self-diagnosis Display
When problems occur while the unit is operating, the counter of the
LCD screen shows a 4-digit display consisting of an alphabet and
numbers, which blinks at 3.2 Hz. This 5-character display indicates
the “repaired by:”, “block” in which the problem occurred, and
“detailed code” of the problem.

Correction
Use the InfoLITHIUM battery.
Format the “Memory Stick Duo”.
Insert a new “Memory Stick Duo”.
Remove the power source. Reconnect it again and operate your
camcorder again
Make flash memory data correct value. (Note 1)
Inspect the lens block focus reset sensor (pin 8 of CN5101 on
the VC-554 board) when focusing is performed when the focus
buttons of the touch panel are pressed in the focus manual mode,
and the focus motor drive circuit (IC5401 on the VC-554 board)
when the focusing is not performed.
Inspect the lens block zoom reset sensor (pin 0 of CN5101 on
the VC-554 board) when zooming is performed when the zoom
lever is operated, and the zoom motor drive circuit (IC5401 on
the VC-554 board) when zooming is not performed.
Check whether the flexible board of the lens is broken, and
check whether it is inserted imperfectly. If there is no problem in
the flexible board, inspect the focus/zoom motor drive circuit
(IC5401 on the VC-554 board).
Inspect the flash memory (IC7801 on the VC-554 board). (Note 1)
Note 1:
Start the Adjust Manual in the Adjust Station and refer to the “DESTINATON DATA WRITE”.
