Turns out it was set to the PC input awaiting a timing signal, and when finding none, shut down as most computer monitors will. There was no way to change the input during the short time it was on. I connected a PC to it, it stayed on, and I put it back on "TV" mode and sent it back with instructions to be careful about switching inputs.   A month later, it was back with the same problem. Seems when switching inputs to watch a DVD, they again paused over the PC input and the TV shut down.   I ended up finding a timing signal on the board, cap coupled it to a transistor, and fed that to the back of the PC jack to fool it to think an active PC was connected. That fixed that. From then on, it would stay on regardless of where the input was set.   A software change would have fixed it, but there was no help from Vizio.     > I haven't looked to see if new software is downloadable for that model - > but I suspect this is more likely to be a hardware fault.   Did you contact them? It does kind of sound like it's a software issue. Maybe when it detects zero signal, it may do something odd, like recycle one of the ICs.

Does the tone change in anyway due to the clicks?   Also with the external input connected to nothing, do the clicks change depending on if the external input is open vs shorted or terminated?   These recorders often apply a few volts of DC power to the input to power mics.   Put a scope on the input line and see if the spikes are actually present on the input line. Or connect the input to another audio input that you can listen to , do the spikes come OUT the audio input?   If you apply a small DC signal to the input through a current limiting resistor , will that stop the spikes? Try both polarities?   Is there a schematic available?   mark

N_Cook <diverse@tcp.co.uk>: Nov 14 04:08PM Can you read the IC numbers relating to preamps, then perhaps find a generic operational problem with it, outside of Tascam. A datasheet would let you find the main rails and perhaps there is some space to add some chip caps across the rails in that arra.

No burnt smell either.   Then I saw it, the tinsel leads had welded themselves together requiring some effort to pull them apart. Later, when the woofer was driven hard on test, the leads vibrated *towards* each other, eventual making a horrible noise when they began touching !!!   Shortening both tinselleads by a couple of cm and twisting them 90 degrees in the solder terminals fixed the problem.   A similar problem happens when both tinsel leads are able to contact the speaker's steel frame in use. Tinsel leads have to be just the right length and oriented correctly.     > When done apply low frequency sine wave and listen or any > noises.   ** Agreed.       ..... Phil
