SONY CT60 SOUNDBAR VOLUME RESET CRACKED

on your key pad there are also volume controls they will be the fn keys hold down the fn key and. This unit was obviously NOT made by Sony since the quality of the parts and engineering is severely lacking. SONY remote stopped working for a SA-CT60 sound bar. I found many bad solder joints on my board.

Here are some photos of the failed cap in my HT-CT60:Īlso touch up any solder joints that look cracked or sunken while you have the board out. It may help to use the photos below for reference The negative side on the board is indicated by white score marks and the capacitor will have a stripe running top to bottom on the negative side. Also be mindful of polarity when installing the new unit.

Make sure you get one rated for 105c or else it will fail prematurely. Panasonic, Nichicon, Rubycon and Nippon Chemicon are good brands of capacitors to buy. If you don't feel comfortable doing this task, you may want to hire it out to a geeky friend : ) Go to your local electronics repair shop and buy a new 470uf 16v 105c capacitor. Grab a soldering iron and carefully remove the failed capacitor. The capacitors around it will probably have nice flat tops and they shouldn't need replacing at this time. I have moved it closer to the sound bar but it still doesn't work. It should read 470uf 16v 105c on the side, and if it's anything like the one I found it will have a bulged top on it indicating failure. I have a Sony HT-CT800 sound bar with a wiewless sub woofer. All 6 indicators on the Bar Speaker flash once, and the settings return to their initial status. Find the capacitor labeled C914 which is right next to a small transformer and several other electrolytic capacitors. If the system still does not operate properly, reset the system as follows: Press SW (subwoofer volume) +, (volume), and NIGHT in sequence within 3 seconds. Take out all of the screws in the back and get it opened up, and you will see the main circuit board which consists of the power supply and amplifier section. **This solution will fix the problem with the unit powering off shortly after you turn it on**
