Can someone help me please Pacific dvd

[jackplug]

First of all, hi to everyone as I have just joined this interesting site and hopefuly I will be able to help out others who may be stuck

I do electrical repairs and I have just put a new ic chip in a pacific 1002w model, BUT I dislodged a black wire from the pannel near the psu and I don't know where this wire needs to be soldered back to, is there anyone here who has a scan or a picture inside this dvd they can send me or upload and then I can solder the wire back to where it should go.
Many thanks if someone can help on this.

I do electrical repairs

Are You qualified in any way to do these repairs? or are you just a fly by nite, chancing your arm during the recession?

Whats your problem here, yes I know how to repair most things i simply asked if anyone had a scan of this box so I can put the black wire to correct place.

Its why Gas fitters have to be corgi registered.. Gas can Kill. Electricity can kill too. Someone unqualified has no right to be going round fleecing people, pretending they they know what they are doing. Leave it to the trained.

What's your F*****G problem here, I simply asked if anyone has a scan on the inside of a Pacific dvd model 1002w so I can put this wire that has come away from the board, and regards fleecing people, I am repairing this box for myself, it's my own box I want to fix.
So if you can't help then F***K Off

Why have i recieved a warning about my post, I simply asked for help on a Pacific dvd player 1002w and got a very un-helpful reply from this guy preaching that electricity is dangerous (I never knew this) and then he accuses me of Fleecing people, I'm trying to repair the box for myself, it belongs to me.
I am very annoyed at he's stupid remarks that I am Fleecing people?

[redwudz]

The warning was about cross posting the same question in multiple threads. That's a rules violation here.

Try asking the question here: http://www.dvd.reviewer.co.uk/forum211/Hardware Use 'Pacific 1002w ' in the search box. There seem to be a few members there that are familiar with the device and may be able to give you a photo.

OK, I have to ask- Would someone please translate this for me?
"Its why Gas fitters have to be corgi registered."
Now, I have a good idea what a gas fitter might be, and I'm pretty sure that Corgi's are those kind of ugly little dogs that the Queen has, but I can't, for the life of me, put the two together.

[Jim44]

Google "corgi gas".

[jackplug]

Google "corgi gas".

What kind of a site is this, I don't want to cause trouble or upset anybody BUT all I did was ask for some help and all I got was a stupid reply that I am fleecing people.
I'm trying to repair my own 'effing' Box,
Very Confused.

Dear Jackplug,

The vast majority of people on Videohelp.com will share their knowledge, experience, and suggestions freely in a friendly, non-hostile manner.

However, there is a blessedly small number of misanthropes who sit anonymously at their computers and have nothing better to do than jump to unjustified conclusions and/or accusations, or just decide to be horses' patoots (trying to keep my language cleaner than I'd really rather use) and start flame wars.

Unfortunately, your first post here brought out one of these who became an unjustified self-appointed Inquisitor.

Ignore such people and simply report their rudeness via the "report" link at the lower left of such posts. Let the Moderators decide what action--if any--to take.

Thanks for this comment, and I appologise for my outburst.

Maybe you can take close-up pics of the player innards from a few angles and post them here.
Wires inside DVD players, if not of the flat cable type, are generally bunched together. When one is dislodged chances are it's easy to see which bunch & connector it came from. Is this black wire alone or are there others similar?? If it's thick and alone and near the PSU it could be one that came from a power switch, if this Pacific has one (most players don't have a mechanical power switch).
I have opened up quite a few DVD players myself and from what I saw, if it's not a name brand (like JVC, Sony, Panasonic, etc), they essentially all have the same PSU board, player mechanism, all-in-one MPEG decoder/output board, front panel/display board. And remote control.
These cheap, ultimately disposable DVD made in china players look slightly different on the outside, but are all the same inside. I'm not saying your Pacific is probably one, but there.
I've never replaced an IC chip inside a DVD player (except for installing a board for region-free BD playback inside a Panasonic DMP-BD30, but that's not an IC and the BD30 is MORE than a DVD player). Mostly it's all about replacing burst electrolytic capacitors in the PSU board. Before I even get to replacing an IC I'd just replace the board or junk the player altogether, so I'm curious: exactly what IC was it you're trying to replace...?

Many thanks for your reply Turk.
The ic that I replaced was an 8 pin power coverter TEA1523P, the one I replaced had split open.

I have decided that I am going to try ang buy a second hand one from Ebay UK, these Pacific dvd players where sold by ASDA about 5 years ago and they cost about £45, here is the reason I want to get it sorted, I have about 3 difrent dvd players and some with hard drives as well, OK when I spend money on dvd's I buy often from AMAZON I always make a copy of the original and use the copy, BUT when copying most dvds on my pc and then playing them back on a more expensive dvd player I find that half way through watching the copied dvd that they tend to stick and freeze up, Pacific dvd players are excellent regards playing copy's and very very rarely stick or freeze.
Kindest Regards, Jack

Someone "who does electrical repairs" ? sounds like a "job on the s(n)ide". At least if it is your own KIt then no probs, you're not charging anyone else or putting them at risk. But you haven't mentioned your qualifications or training.

you are a really an annoying person keep coming out with these questions, i repair things for myself is this okay with you.

Please don't send any more post on this issue cos i won't respond to any more of your stupid postings.

Why is this person being a pain in the neck over a simple post i made, i was very polite when i joined this site and if i can help anyone then i will, if i can't then i won't come out with stupid comments like this person.

I would like to report this person's comments to me to the admn of this site because he is really annoying me!!!

The TEA1523P is a common PWM regulator IC in DVD player and satellite receiver PSUs. I nearly replaced one or two of them at first. But they die because of overheating and when they do, it's almost always along with nearly all of the output electrolytic capacitors as well, so that individually replacing each component actually is more hassle (and costly) than replacing the entire PSU board. In DVD players, I've found that the voltages are pretty generic: a +5V, a +3.3V, a +12V, and optionally a +5V or +3.3V (standby) and a -30V (for driving VFD, should the player have one) such that boards for the purpose that can be bought off-shelf where I am works for all the no-name players I've encountered.
I'm only motivated to replace specific components when dealing with unique circuitry of branded DVD players.
