Sony KDX46Q005 - Triluminos - American market – 46” LCD TV – Board replacement procedure and Troubleshooting

Sony Triluminos KDX-46Q005 – 46 inch LCD TV - M1MU  and DIC3 board Replacement procedure.

They have adjustment value for YLEV, CLEV and Sub-HUE. The board supplied will have center (average) value for them as the service parts. But adjustment values of analog RF input and analog CVBS input have large dispersion.  When M1MU board is changed, it should make a note of Sub RF and CVBS values and copy to new board which was replaced by service mode.  When DIC3 is changed, it also should make a note of Main RF and CVBS adjusted values and copy to new board both “DRC On” and “DRC Off”.
