Title: Philips FTR9964 receiver box.
Post by: DAVIDTV on December 23, 2008,06:07:00

My Philips 33FD9944/01S is now working having changed several electrolytic capacitors in the power supply.  The television only as a VGA input and works well when connected to my computer.  It is normally connected to a Philip FTR9964/12S receiver unit.  If I connect a television to either External 1 or External 2 SCART and push the power button the following happens:
The power LED is red for an instant, the relay on the power supply energises. The power LED turns orange.  After about 2 seconds the picture from the analogue tuner appears but without sound.  The picture remains for about 6 seconds.  The power LED turns green, almost immediately the relay de-energises and the power LED starts flashing.
I’ve checked all the electrolytic capacitors in the power supply in-situ with a Peak Atlas ESR meter and all appear to be satisfactory.  I’ve also bridged each voltage output from the power supply in turn with a large capacitor.  This made no difference.  I’ve also tried a large capacitor across the input to the 3.3 volt regulator (7009) and a 47 mfd capacitor across its output, again with no change.
Please can anyone help?
I have managed to download the manual for the 33FD9944/01S but have been unable to find a free download for the FTR9964/12S receiver unit.

have you checked any voltages on the rails that you have changed caps/bridged caps.If something is dragging the voltage down a cap will not make any difference if bridged across the supply rail. :cheesy1:.

Thank you for the reply. Yes I have checked the voltages and they all appear correct.

Hi,check up this
Display shows "no signal" and goes directly in stand-by when starting up. RESTRICTIONS: Only valid for F21R sets with change code "AA" 

Cure
Check fuse on position 1800 on the Double Window panel (schematic M2), and replace if defective by a new one  (400mA/65V, Wickmann MP40).
It refers to E-Box! Bye.
