Re: Re: Re: Re: JVC service or questions

Just wanted to add my posting to the list of 10. Bought my JVC AV-27985 new 2 years ago, though the set was actually manufactured 6 years ago. Worked fine--then one day no power. Where's the nearest JVC service facility to my Tracy, CA 93577 zip code area, between Stockton and the SF Bay Area?

  I'm in stockton, and the same thing happened to my JVC 36. Did you find someone in Stockton to help you?

    I read Tom Pajewski's 7-17-04 post: "Had the same problem with my JVC-32980.Working one day, next day nothing.changed out C926 with a 1000uF 35V capacitor that I bought at Radio Shack for $1.49. TV works like a champ. Took all of 20 minutes to fix." Now... I'm not handy AT ALL with sort of stuff, but I thought, heck, for $1.49 I'll give it a try. I unplugged the set, took all the screws off the back and looked for the C926 capacitor - they're clearly labeled. I noticed the part bulged at the top slightly -- (that is what indicated to Tom that the part was "blown.") I bought a new 1000uF 35V capacitor at Radio Shack -- my part cost $1.75. Then I pulled out the old part and soldered the new part in and bingo, I'll be darned! the TV worked again! Tom probably saved me at least $100 - 150.
