Emerson volume keeps going down Questions & Answers ...
www.fixya.com > Forum > Tags > volume keeps going down
Emerson volume keeps going down related problems. Ask your Emerson ... myEmerson TV. It turned itself down to zero and stayed on the screen and wouldn.
Is there any settings that allow the unit to reduce the sound at all? Check carefully to see if there are. If you can't find any then there is a fault in the volume control circuit. Volume controls these days are controlled by a chip (IC). These can go faulty.
The most common possible cause is the buttons on the set, not the actual plastic buttons but the tiny micro switch (push switch that only should activate when the plastic button touches it)
these go bad and depending on which is bad things happen by themselves.
Lucky that it is not volume up, that is nasty.
The way to prove/disprove this is to get at those--usually they are on a tiny board and if individual ones unsolder the two pins for each (may be more to hold them in place) taking them out of the circuit, set will still work with the remote.
If your troubles are now gone just leave them disconnected and use the remote as only way today to replace is buy that board which will have the same poor quality parts as the old one.
For the tech minded they can be tested with a ohm meter--check resistance with meter set way up to over 20k scale---each has two pins(the switches) and should have ABSOLUTELY no resistance reading unless pressed. I have seen ones reading over 5k or 5,000 ohms and that is enough to act like they are being pressed.
