Sony DAV-SC8 System
Problem for Sony DAV-SC8 System

Flashing standby message.




By Akom on Apr 23, 2006

Most functions work fine i.e sound for the T.V but when you push the power button to standby the system just flashes 'standby'. Also if you try to switch to DVD mode either by using the function button or inserting a DVD the system just goes blank with nothing lit.

Only way to get it working in both cases so I can get sound for my T.V is to switch off then on at the socket.

Any help would be great.

- Thanks for your help Techman. I just wanted to give you more info on my problem.

I can use all functions. TV, video 1, video 2 and Tuner. If i select DVD then the display shows 'DVD' for a second then goes blank. Press the function button gets you back to the other functions ok.

Also if the standby button is pressed then i get the flashing standby message until i power off then on at the mains.

I thought the DVD drive module might be at fault, so i tried it with the DVD module disconnected but was left with exactly the same fault.

Hope you can help.

I unplugged my unit over night and it became operable. However it was non responsive to the remote or manual buttons.

Are any of the buttons not making a click feel when you press them like maybe one is stuck?? You didnt say if the same thing happen with the radio as did with the cd. If it is then a switch is stuck or bad or a problem with the switch matrix for the Microprocesor . Only way to trouble shoot this is I would use a scope and check all of the matrix {ie scann lines as well as input lines for distortion or noise and make sure when the buttons are pussed that they change and switch accordinly. If they dont then the processors bad. Good luck

- If you disconnect the CD Deck and it does the same thing then I would assume that theres gotta be a problem in the microprocessor curcuit.
