provides various symptoms, likely causes, and checkpoints. The checkpoints refer to waveforms, resistance,
and other values to be checked to evaluate the operation of each component.
Phenomenon Condition Cause Checkpoints Solution
It does not
operate at all.
CPU does
not operate.
Reset circuit
does not
operate.
Check the wave-form
at either pin 1 and 4(GND).

CRU1 or IC2
is defective.
Does wave-form of CRU1 is correct?
(at either pin 37 and 38 of CPU)
Correct : replace IC2.
Incorrect : replace
CRU1.
CRU2 or IC1
is defective.

operate.
Check the wave-form at the pin
(52,54,56,57,58).
Replace IC1.
OE signal
does not
output.
Gate array
does not
operate.
Check the wave-form at the pin 3 of QM3.
Does PWM wave-form is correct?
(Check the pin at 140.)
Replace IC1.
Self-test
printing
does not
abnormal.
PWM signal
does not
output.
