SAFETY CHECK-OUT
After correcting the original service problem, perform the following 
safety checks before releasing the set to the customer:
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 
touching high-wattage resistors.
3.  Check that all control knobs, shields, covers, ground straps, and 
mounting hardware have been replaced. Be absolutely certain that 
you have replaced all the insulators.
4.  Look for unauthorized replacement parts, particularly transistors, 
that were installed during a previous repair. Point them out to the 
customer and recommend their replacement.
5.  Look for parts which, though functioning, show obvious signs of 
deterioration. Point them out to the customer and recommend their 
replacement.
6.  Check the line cords for cracks and abrasion. Recommend the 
replacement of any such line cord to the customer.
7.  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 
instructions.
2.  A battery-operated AC milliampmeter. 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’s 250 and Sanwa SH-63TRD are examples of 
passive VOMs that are suitable. Nearly all battery-operated digital 
multimeters that have a 2 VAC range are suitable (see Figure A).
How to Find a Good Earth Ground
The cover-plate retaining screw on most AC outlet boxes is at earth 
ground. Verify the AC outlet box retaining screw ground by connecting 
a 60-to 100-watt trouble-light (not a neon lamp) between the hot side 
of the receptacle and the retaining screw. Try both slots, if necessary, 
to locate the hot side on the line; the lamp should light at normal 
brilliance if the screw is at ground potential (see Figure B).

All capacitors are in µF unless otherwise noted. pF : µµF 50WV or 
less are not indicated except for electrolytics and tantalums.
All electrolytics are in 50V unless otherwise specified.
All resistors are in ohms.  k
=1000, M=1000k
Indication of resistance, which does not have one for rating 
electrical power, is as follows:

All variable and adjustable resistors have characteristic curve B, 
unless otherwise noted.
Readings are taken with a color-bar signal input.
Readings are taken with a 10M
 digital multimeter.
Voltages are DC with respect to ground unless otherwise noted.
Voltage variations may be noted due to normal production 
tolerances.
All voltages are in V.

Circled numbers are waveform references.
The components identified by shading and

 symbol are critical for safety. Replace 
only with part number specified. 
The symbol 
 indicates a fast operating fuse and is displayed on the component 
side of the board. Replace only with fuse of the same rating as marked.

NOTE: The components identified by a red outline and a   mark contain confidential 
information. Specific instructions must be adhered to whenever these components 
are repaired and/or replaced.
