Siggi, I already complained about Ronan's cross-posting. His main thread is on TekScopes-2. Here's the link to the video: **** QUOTE **** The following files have been uploaded to the Files area of

Ronan, We're seeing the principal reason for my dislike of cross-posting. You're getting responses from people who are unaware of what has been achieved and established already. I fell into the same

Hi Mark, Ronan's 'scope works fine, generally, as can be seen in his video. Except for the Rifa caps, replacement of components isn't "compulsory" and even risky if one doesn't have the experience and

Ronan, Check the power supply voltages for d-c and ripple. The electrolytics, some resistors and several tantalums are known to give problems. Mr. Yachad of Condor Audio has a parts kit for the

Rey, When you say that "the screen lites up" what do you mean by that? Are you saying that you have two straight lines, but when you apply a signal to either input channel you don't get any vertical

Just scanned the 475 SM online doc. I didn't find a diagnosis chart - is that not in the online 475 manual? Wanted to throw this in the suggestion box - after checking and verifying the LV supplies:

Welcome! Standard procedure is to check the supplies (there are several in that scope). A quite common problem is a shorted "teardrop" tantalum capacitor, but a few quick measurements will tell you a

Check all of the LV power supplies. That's always the first stop. Get the service manual and make sure all of the supplies are within spec for voltage AND ripple. Nothing works if the power

My inbuilt autoresponder says: "Check the low voltages" and report back. The voltages are interdependent. Highly likely you'll find a defective/shorted (Tantalum) capacitor. Use dwg11 in the service

[Cross-posted to TekScopes2 and Tektronix] Greetings! I've acquired a 2467B, with no power-up error codes, but very poor focus. It has SN of BO50000+. It's been in storage some years. I let it

Hi guys, my first post here looking for answer I found this place. I'm looking for a bit of guidance, my 475 just quit it was working fine. Both channels are gone, no beam find. Every switch light

Congratulations! I hope my two suggestions "Don't ignore the possibility of someone having made an assembly error" and "I'd check the trigger inputs to the trigger logic board (dwg6 area A1 -A2). You

*SOLVED* seems the tech before me that was in this unit flipped 2 of the micro coax lines. J1101 and J1002 were flipped on the vertical board side. Seems everything was testing good because it was. I

After a night of trouble shooting I think I have traced it to at least the offending section if not the dead part. Putting a square wave on the channel 2 input I have what I think is the expected wave
