sony profeel VTX 1000R KX2501 service manuals

[zeno]

I am note sure if this is the same set BUT there is a
Sony model on a pedestal with seperate tuners. When
you pull the back it explodes into pieces. It has
2 heavy Speakers on the back & cant take the weight.
Must have used the wrong plastic. Kinda hard to tell
the customer, luckily when we took it in he told us
something was rattling inside. Was a few pieces from
the back. We did a few of these sets, always bad
PC cons.

thanks guys for the replys.....zeno.....not sure if the set that you refer to is the same as mine or not but I will be sure and be careful when removing the back.

Charles, I did some digging through all of my stored stuff and found the original manuals...in addition I found two separate detailed schematics with partial parts list etc......I do remember now that these came with the set which is not the usual operendi but I would guess that since this was supposed to be a somewhat professional "profeel" set that sony did include the schematics. So if anyone else may ever need a copy then I guess I can try and scan it but it is very large so would have to scan a piece at a time.

Charles, thanks for all of the information and suggestions....I will try everything that you suggest and let you know how things turn out just as soon as I can get my emerson model 45 off of the bench (almost done with that). The picture does seem to be uniformly washed out but will have a closer look....whatever casused the picture to go in the first place took out the whole picture...as a matter of fact as I think back, I think that the set would not power up at all....I was a fuse on the schematic but that woudl not explain why after comming back from the tech that the picture was washed out and perfect before that. I love this set.
