RCA Colortrack Nov 1999, chassis TX826ZD, SN 946625050, model E13334WH

Sounds like it's clicking itself on and off, picture tube don't light.
An inductor , 6603-09D FEC990BB 9023800 112uH seems to be clicking.
It came on one time and ran fine for a while then quit again back to
clicking. Any ideas?

New finding. When It's playing normally it starts failing by collapsing
the picture from the top and bottom to the center with a bright line
across the center before it goes off completely and starts clicking.

probably bad electrolytic caps. an ESR meter will find them.
the clicking is the power supply current limiting and trying to restart.

Also,look for discolored,bulging or leaking electrolytic caps.

Also, check for bad joints on field output I.C. Very very common, all
makes and models ...

ESR meters range from .01 to 99 ohms. Can you use a digital multimeter
as an ESR meter?

Nope. Entirely different measurement principle, measuring something which is
entirely different from DC ohms. ESR is sort of like 'AC ohms' if you will,
and is a measure of the 'goodness' of the behaviour of the cap under AC or
pulse conditions. Invest in an ESR meter, and you won't regret it. Bob
Parker's design has been revamped into the "Blue", and is marketed by Anatek
Corporation. There is a large section on their website, covering all aspects
of the meter, and some useful info on the principles of ESR measurement, and
what it can tell you about the condition of an electrolytic cap. This meter
is available either ready made or as a kit, and is very reasonably priced. I
use both a "Blue", and its predecessor, professionally and daily, and I
would recommend this design without reservation as an admirable performer
and excellent value for money. Some time back, I did a review of the kit for
a magazine. If you are interested in reading it, mail me off-group, and I'll
forward you a copy.

ESR meters use short pulses to test capacitors for equivalent series
resistance.

A DVM would use DC to check for DC resistance.

The answer of your question is NO, a DVM can not be used to test ESR
although an ESR meter CAN [in many cases] be used to test for other kinds
of resistance, it could not [for example] be used on an inductor, to test
the inductor's equivalent series (or DC) resistance because the short pulse
could see a high impedence (depending on the value of the inductor) rather
than the series resistance.

You CAN use the DVM to test for LEAKAGE (parallel resistance) of the
capacitor, whereas the ESR meter is useless for that purpose.

I can't seem to find the contents of the kit. I don't like buying
something blind. What do you think is in it?
 
This group is for electronic repair, not for advice on what to do once you
have found a solution to the problem. Thats where your judgment and learning
experience begin.
