Cute little Sanyo CTP1101 Portable TV resurrection
มุมมอง 460หลายเดือนก่อน
This Sanyo CTP1101 television was literally picked from the top of a rubbish pile and brought back to my lab. I nearly passed it up as it looked like a little black and white set. I saw the little colour logo out the corner of my eye and that saved it from being e-waste. In this video we try to get this tv powered up, with a picture and sound.

Today we take a look at a Sony KV-1340 from 1975. This particular tv came in from an ebay seller who didn't know how to send stuff by post - particularly CRT tvs. This video took 6 months to edit due to ill health. Not my best effort.

Today I repair a Sony EV-S700 Video8 VCR that i picked up from ebay untested and try to repair it. With its power cable cut off and last chance saloon on ebay I didn't have many hopes that this delicate and difficult to repair video recorder would show signs of life and would let me repair it.

Hard to get that stuff off your fingers, nasty stuff that goo.
sony and those damn liquid belts. they put them in all those late 80s/ early 90s cassette players as well
@@briangoldberg4439 yeah they seem to turn to liquid goo that sticks to everywhere.
Hi I'm trying to fix my slf1e but I have this problem m.th-cam.com/users/shorts50oTS95PUPo Please do you have any suggestions?
From memory there is a latch on to the cassette tray into the bottom of the deck. Often the little plastic hook gets gummed up and does not swing into place to catch the latch on the cassette tray. Its a deck that uses electronics to pull the hook to eject. I'd check that hook and solenoid.. Not a nice job if you have to dive into the base of the deck mech. Def fixable just fiddly.
@@ResurrectionRetro Thank you you were very kind to answer me I will try
@@gcioni Let me know how it goes via email. you can find my email on the about tab on my channel
@@ResurrectionRetro Absolutely yes thank you
Is that a Charley-deck mechanism? (Betamax-style “C-wrap” tape path)?
@@stickytapenrust6869 god no. Just run of the mill m wrap. Charley would be parted out or fixed
@ It’ll be a Panasonic mech with Philips electronics, then.

hello in the output cable there is R-g1, G-g1 and B-g1 and in the cathode ray tube there is only 01 g1 how am I going to connect the 03 wires
I'm afraid the TV went to a good home a while back and I don't have it to check for you. Good luck with your repair.
I had one. I couldn't understand very well, i also got into the light pen program, changed the words on the home screen, it never worked again. Whether that was because of my reprogramming i dont know. Anyway, really interesting to see it again, thank you for the video.
Hello I have a bk 467 crt testing the ammeter does not read the filament voltages but when I measure in the output cable I find all the exact voltages
Hello, I bought this tester. What voltage should I supply? 117 or 234 V?
@@simo007-o4u where in the world do you live and where did you buy this?
@ResurrectionRetro I am from Morocco North Africa, I bought it yesterday from the weekly market where they sell used parts. I made it work at 220v. The G1 voltage is ok but the red cathode ammeter does not indicate the voltage. The ammeter is not burned out, test it with an ohmmeter. But when I measure at the cable outlet I find all the voltages. Can you help me solve this problem, thank you.
@simo007-o4u I'm sorry but unable to help remotely. I would suggest downloading the service manual.
@@ResurrectionRetrohello the filament voltage problem is solved by changing the 1n67 germanium diode. how can i find a pdf of the tube restoration instructions
Hello, I bought this tester. What voltage should I supply? 117 or 234 V?
I found last week from junk a kv-1615DF (french version) and impossible to have the service manual. I have no picture. There is no high voltage. BU seems to be good. I have sound and infrared is responding. All tensions from secondary seem to be conform. Without shematics, i don't know where to start my diagnostic...

Super video . I have the same C7 EC 1983 and now the rewind is too too slow ? It s just for deco vintage for the moment . Taking care and thanks for the ressurection..

Is there any store selling new video heads? I have a panasonic vcr nv hd 6320 with head damaged.
@@sureshbabu-xp4xb No. There are no stores selling video heads. You will have to search for 2nd hand or new old stock.
I bought my first cd player during my mid teens during the 1990's I found a secondhand hifi service shop when i was about 14. As i was always purely a record player kid, still am at heart, i decided wanted my first cd player. I was very kindly given some good money from my great aunt during the mid 90's so i thought this shop. The service owner which who i had many a chat with about my passion for stereos had a good collection of fairly priced cd players which at that time i had very little knowledge about. There alongside others on the shelf was this small philips priced at £45. so i opted for it. I liked its weight and that it had this heatsink sticking out of the back making me carry it to the bus stop with its facia facing me as so the fins weren't sticking into me. I remember that it never ever gave me any trouble with whatever disc i put into it. What i liked about it was that the tracks went up to 45 which seemed quite extraordinary to me even back then i wondered if it would make that number if there was a track listed cd of that number existed. After about 5 years i ended up swapping it in another shop along with a mid 80's aiwa cassette deck for some rather large early 80's fisher speakers, the speakers although looked great weren't up to the application i really wanted them for as they were simply for AV use. The cd player was only the philips cd 104. Gosh i did some stupid things when i was young. The classic rogers a100 amplifier was another ultimate silly swap and that was even later. I
If the phosphor is damaged, that doesn't matter, the CRT still works as long as the ray gun still operate
After testing the tube in another chassis the tube had gone to air.
I’ve been using one of these as my “best” VCR for several years now..
I went back to my machine to do some more testing… Probing with a multimeter.. The tape moves, but no sound.. The USB doesn’t seem to do anything much..? My conclusion is… I Win🎉🎉 (because I only paid £16 for this hunk of junk..😬) Which is about to get harvested for parts..👍
@@outaspaceman agreed it is a hunk of junk :)
I’m trying to repair the same model.. On opening I find out the motor wasn’t connected..😟 (Still better than my Barbie Karaoke Machine though..)
@@outaspaceman I was thinking of using a potato as a capacitor across the motor terminals. Might improve the wow and flutter from hideous to awful.
Great a silver SL-C40 😄
Just Subscribed. Good video 👍
Can you give me the button type used for the Sony KV1612 repair? Asked it in comments of that video, but no idea if you still look at comments on old videos.
@lovemadeinjapan I don't have iny info on that button
Rob, you have mail!
Any info on the button type used?
How did you get out the button PCB? I can release it from the clips, but the flat cables are soldered, so no easy access it seems.
I picked up the E version yesterday, dark grey metallic instead of cream, so amazing looks, with the original remote for 25€. The seller said it works but it has some button issues. I hope your replacement suggestions will bring this one to fully working condition too. Thanks for the detailed checkup.
Excellent set and rare, I have one myself but looking for a mint one. Well done on getting this beautiful set.
Thank you for that Great Video. On ebay that is for "jsut" £295,00 to have.
love your videos and the awesome sets you get and repair.
I just picked up one of these (the Australian variant) with what appears to be the original remote. The silkscreen lettering has worn off so I'm unable to tell the model number. Did you end up finding a matching remote?
My remote says RM-605
@lovemadeinjapanthat's it! Thanks
Thanks for this! I'm fascinated in tech like this! It's interesting how people tried to find interesting ways to amuse themselves! Handheld devices like this were difficult to make, I imagine, especially with that technology, and naturally, they were a few steps behind their full size counterparts that they were portable versions of, and that includes consoles. There were also those LCD handhelds. But were there also similar handhelds but made with CRT screens?Thanks for this! I'm fascinated in tech like this!

Handheld devices like this were difficult to make, I imagine, especially with that technology, and naturally, they were a few steps behind their full size counterparts that they were portable versions of, and that includes consoles. There were also those LCD handhelds. But I was wondering, since there several mini TVs being made, did they also make CRT handhelds like those that were dedicated for other things like communicating or games, basically LCD games but with CRT screens?
good stuff 👍
Brilliant to watch . Told you it was a worker . So glad you bought it .
Still have a Voltmace Database . Fully working ! Crazy Crab etc
Looks great and clean the c5
Cool - I just found your channel
Just shows they were built like bricks back then. Love that tv I need to get myself a 90's / 00's era triniton, but I'll only buy locally so it's a long wait. Can't wait to see what the picture is like on a crt playing my newly aligned panny NV-F65!! You got an absolute bargain there mate, enjoy!
Good work, I seen that, it's quite a nice model but the broken on off switch put me off.
Surprising it survived that shipping :D Also is the full recap required on older early 70s trinitrons? I have couple of KV-1310Rs that are in mint condition and both are running on the original caps, only flaw is the smaller deflection on the bottom. But if the caps can kill all the rare transistors/ICs then I should recap them soon.
Thanks for the message. Check the 330uf caps on the deflection board. On my board they are at top right as you look at the board while fixed in the chassis. It looks like Sony put in 2 x 330uf in parallel. I just replaced with a 1000uf at 50v and it all came in nicely.. Def replace all caps in power and deflection board. Ive heard of a color demod cap going short and taking out the unobtainable transistors on the power board. On the RF and color demod board ids check every single one and choose to replace. elsewhere on any HV or power boards replace all.
@@ResurrectionRetro Thanks for the tips, I'll recap them before using them again. These things when new in former Czechoslovakia must have cost a fortune, probably more than a new car, so it's surprising that both of them still have sharp bright picture.
@@snap_oversteerwere they a luxury item in the uk? Our family (in uk) had the colour tv in the lounge and then small black and white tv for upstairs room and dreamt of upgrading to a colour tv then in the late 80’s everything seemed to become affordable.

I bought the same model the other day. When I press the FWD button on mine, it fast forwards properly, but it gets stuck on the REW button, and so does play. I think the REW engine needs to be cleaned, I don't understand.
Could you please help me with my crt tv’s? I need an expert to help me. I’m willing to come to the UK to fix my poor CRT’s.
It's an earthing problem. Firstly make sure that the drum earthing finger is making good contact with the drum. Also there is some metalwork that needs to connect the deck chassis with the drum amp can.
