At this point in time, 1998, the projection television is the ultimate is big-screen TV viewing and has been for the last 15 years. You can find projection TVs in sports bars, at race tracks, as part of a sophisticated home theater system and in many other environments.

This book also shows how to troubleshoot tuner0demodulator circuits, audio circuits, video circuits, horizontal circuits, vertical circuits, high-voltage circuits, microprocessor circuits, power supply circuits, CRTs, projection TV controls and remote control circuits.
This book also contains a case study for the Mitsubishi Model VS-458RS. This study will guide you step-by-step through the repair process using written instruction, helpful photographs and detailed schematics.

4.0 out of 5 stars
A decent purchase,
By Peter Lake "shackleton" (Tampa, fl United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Complete Projection TV Troubleshooting & Repair (Paperback)
I found this book to be helpful for the most part. My recommendation would be to use this book AND spend the 25 bucks for your T.V.'s service manual. Do an internet search or something, they're out there. Mine came on a disk from an online company. As usual, the flow charts in the service manual were next to useless. However, using the information in this book in combination with the schematics and part info in the service manual, I was able to repair my TV. Don't expect to fix your TV with just this book. It tells you exactly what parts to look at, but without your TV's service manual, you can't equat them to your specific TV. An example, a rather common fault is for the Horizontal Output Transistor to go bad. This fault, and how to correct it is stated in the book. That's all fine and dandy, but without your TV's service manual, you'll have no idea which transistor is YOUR Horizontal Output Transistor. My only grip is that Amazon stated that this was a hardback. It's not. It's a softcover. Good Luck.

1.0 out of 5 stars
useless,
By A Customer
This review is from: Complete Projection TV Troubleshooting & Repair (Paperback)
Easily the most useless purchase I ever made. The authors thoughts are random and dispersed. The book is not organized as a troubleshooting guide. It does not provide symptoms and flowcharts for determining the cause. At best it is an incomplete, brief, overview of television basics, with a couple of reminiscences of the authors experiences with tv repair. If the paper were recycled, the book would be worth .00023 cents.

Overview Book,
This review is from: Complete Projection TV Troubleshooting & Repair (Paperback)
This book is not well written, I have two other books from SAMS publishing and was expecting this to be of the same caliber, I was disapponinted.
There is no depth of information. At best it is an overview not a instructional tool, certianly not complete by any stretch of the imagination. If I were you I would look to another source if you want more than a basic overview of projection TV repair.
