      I have the same problem! My JVC Television is the same model #AV-32890 and we turned it off one night went to bed and the next morning it was like it just quit.It won't come on at all and I was wondering if there is a recall on this television because it sounds like there should be. Help!!!

        The component is the C926 (labeled on the bottom) capacitor near the center of the circuit board chassis. It is a large cylindrical capacitor just to the right of center as viewed from the rear. De-solder it out and replace it with a 1000uf 35v or 50v capacitor from Radio Shack. The cap. you buy from Radio Shack will be axial leads, while the cap. you replace will have radial leads. Don't let this bother you just bend the leads to fit the holes and it will work fine. Pay attention to the polarity marking on the circuit board and the capacitor. You need to have a little experience in how to solder leads on a circuit board. If you have neve done such work, find someone who has. It is not difficult but you don't want to fry the component or screw up the solder joints of other nearby components.

      ADD ME TO THE LIST!! God I love the internet! My AV32980 quit working just like all the others on this forum. Working fine, then all of the sudden, boom, won't turn on. I was literally looking through the yellow pages to decide which repair shop to take it to, when I decided to just check the internet for any tips on repairing a JVC TV. Found this forum, read the other problem descriptions just like mine, figured that had to be it. In 45 minutes I went to Radio Shack, bought the 1000uf capacitor, got into the TV chassis, found the cap, de-soldered it, soldered in the new one, and walla! Working fine now. Forums like this are just an incredible resource for the folks. Obviously I would NEVER have even begun to know where to look for the problem without this help. Here's a little more info for those who follow: The capacitor you will find at Radio Shack is an AXIAL LEAD type, meeaning it has a wire lead coming out of each end of the device. The capacitor you will take out of the TV is a RADIAL LEAD type, meaning it has both leads coming out of one end. Don;t let this difference bother you. Just bend the leads so they will fit into the hole spacing on the PCB and position the new cap. nice and snug down. The capacitor is marked with which lead is negative. The board is marked with which hole is positive. As long as you get the polarity right the new style will work fine. Also, as suggested in this forum I went ahead and bought the 50 volt capacitor, hoping it will last longer. Seems to work fine so I would suggest that for others. It cost $2.59 instead of $1.69 for the 35v.

        I have a JVC AV32985 with a similar problem as the ones previously described but I do not know if it the same. The TV can not be powered on but the TIMER LED IS FLASHING (a symptom that I have not seen described in the previous cases of other persons). If I unplug the TV for a while and reconnect, I hear the TV screen going ON for about 5 seconds but it remain black then turns itself of and the timer led start flashing again. Please let me know if it is the same problem and I should do the C926 capacitor thing. Thanks in advance for helping me. Steve

        It worked! My son gave me his old JVC AV 32980 that quit just like the others in this post.I haven't fixed a TV since they had tubes and were hand wired so I took the chassis to a local shop and showed them C926,the capacitor to replace. They had the 1000uf 50v capacitor and put it in for $10.00 while I waited. The guy said that that fix probably would not work, but he checked the old capacitor and it tested bad. After I replaced the chassis I called the shop back to say what a good job they did and how good the picture looked! I'm so glad Al Gore invented the internet. My capacitor was black and right near another that was smaller, but right where the posts said it was, right of dead center about 5 o'clock.

      The problem is that when I turn the camera on it doesn't show any picture and displays "LENS CAP" even though the lens cap is removed. The probable cause is a failure of the CCD image sensor from JVC Factory.Can you provide some instructions to fix the problem? JVC DIGITAL VIDEO CAMERA MODEL: GR-D23E Year 2004

    • JVC Color TV - AV-32980 - would not shut off, unplugged, now will not turn on
      Dan Shire
      - 19th Jul 2009 22:25
      I was out of the house when my wife tried to turn off the TV, so I'm repeating what she explained. The remote would not turn the set off, when she hit the remote power button, the tv would cycle off and then immediately back on again (the relay clicked twice - on the way off, then back on). Being practical, she tried the power switch on the TV with the same result. The set cycled off and then immediately on again (relay clicks twice). It did this several times. So, she unplugged the set's power bar as she was going to be out of the house for several days. When I got back 2 days later, and plugged the power bar in the set would not turn on from the remote or the set's power switch. It seems completely dead (other devices like the VCR are fine, plugged into the power bar). I would have suspected the capacitor problem mentioned elsewhere (C926), except for the odd symptoms before the set died. I couldn't find any reference to a circuit breaker on the tv, I suspect a sticky power relay is the problem. At 11 year old, I'm inclined now to replace the tv with an LCD model Any other suggestions, thanks, Dan.

    Stacy,
    I see many (at least 10) who all complain about the same failure mode, including myself, on the JVC XX-980 series TV's. I've seen inquiries on the tech line that show the same issues. I also contacted JVC service center in and got the same "I'm sure we can fix it, but we want to see if it is cost effective to do so," lip service. DO you guys have a consumer affairs department. I see a design defect here that is costing consumers a lot of money, and also causing lost future business for JVC. My television is only 4.5 years old and wasn't used that much - until one day - dead. As an electrical engineer, I could troubleshoot the TV but I really don't have the time or desire to do so. I would prefer not to spend a couple hundred bucks on a design defect only to have it do the same thing "in a few more years." Is there anything you can do to help?
    Thanks,
    GEorge

    • Re: Re: JVC service or questions Stacy Sample - 18th Feb 2004 16:57
      You can contact our customer relations dept at (800) 252-5722. I know of no TV defect issues on any one model in my time here in Houston Service. Although it may seem to be a problem on line...you need to understand that millions of TV's are sold and 10 people writing with a similar problem may seem like alot but really is not in the complete scheme of things. You are speaking of a power problem. That can come from several sources and it would be impossible to say for sure what caused it or where it is occuring within the unit without checking it out first. We cannot diagnose over the phone. If the TV was part of a defect issue I doubt it would have lasted 4-5 years considering the power the TV stores even when not on or being used. Something as small as a capacitor can be the problem or as much as the power supply..not to mention anything in between. You did not say where you were but if you were in Houston we would charge an eval fee of $50/tax to look at it. Most TV repairs run approx $85-$120 average...only more on rare occasions. I am sorry if you are looking for details on what is wrong, but I doubt any service center for any company could give that info to you over the phone without looking at it. It would be like a doctor diagnosing over the phone if you have a rash. Where are you located?

        Stacey, My comments came from the fact problems found on this series of TV all had the exact same symptom. If you do a google search on AV 28 - 36 inch 980 series everything points to no power. I only saw 10 postings on line. That certainly does not point to the hundreds of TV's repaired off line. I am in San Diego

        ADD ANOTHER ONE TO THE LIST! I have the same JVC TV I purchased at Circuit City in Massachusetts about 6 years ago. I came home from a week long Vacation and the blasted thing would not power up. I unplugged the TV, let it sit for a while, plugged it back in, and I noticed that it emitted several high frequency sounds, like it was re-attempting to be charged up. I called several TV repair shops in my area, which quoted me prices between $25 to $50 to look at it. With a little bit of internet searching, I came across this thread. I followed the same steps as mentioned in the previous postings, and VOILA ! Issue resolved. I would warn others that decide to attempt this to BE VERY CAUTIOUS, however. I'm not sure of the specifics of these particular series of TV sets, but in general, there are large main filter capacitors in sets that can store large voltage charges for several days.

        I seem to be having the same problem with my 32 inch JVC. I just ran down to radio shack and bought the capacitor. It is true that 10 comments doesn't mean much out of millions of owners - however when you type your JVC model number into google and this is the "ONLY" problem that pops up - that means something to me. And I am "blessed" with a PhD in statistics - I can lie with best of them. I'll have my son install the capacitor tomorrow.

        My JVC AV-36980 is only 5/6 years old with the same power-on problem. I just fixed it by replacing the C926 capacitor too. But I couldn't get the 1000uF 35V capacitor. Instead I used the 1000uF one with 50V. Seems to be OK so far.

        Well...another success story on replacing C926 on my JVC 36980. I know they've said that millions of these sets have been sold and the reported defects are insignificant but I'm now a contributor to the statistics that say JVC had an inherent long term defect. If your set won't turn on and your technically inclined, try replacing a $2 capacitor (C926 - 1000uf @ 35volts) and see what happens.

        I have this same model AV-27980 left behind by my son when he moved to the Big City. The first time it died (just would not come on all of a sudden) we found it was still under an extended warranty. I love to stick it to Future Shop, so it was repaired under warranty about 2 years ago. 2 days ago the same problem. It would not come on! I googled the model number and came up with this site, replaced C926 and it is working again! Now if I can only find such an easy solution for my Proscan 32800.... My thanks to the sponsors and contributors of info to the site for the info!

        Just had an AV-27850 (for google, I'll add AV27850) pull up dead. Searched, found this site, ran to radio shack and -presto- TV works again. I am absolutely astonished that, with this many identical failures, JVC doesn't admit a design fault. I am an Electrical Engineer and would be embarassed by an obvious design failure like this. BTW, the 1000uF cap is still C926 in the 850 series as well and it is located near the middle of the board (a little to the right of center when looking from the rear of the TV). There is a + indicator on the bottom of the PCB if you don't pay attention to how the cap came out ;) . Also, my cap didn't look puckered at all and there was no discoloration on the board itself, but it was obviously the problem. Give this fix a whirl even if you think the cap looks good. Adam Thought I would add some search terms at the bottom of this to cover the 850 series as well.

        God Bless you guys My neighbor was throwing away a JVC AV-36980, and being a packrat i took it from him NO CHARGE. Needless to say my wife was miffed with me brining home more "junk". Anyway i removed the back and started testing things to no avail. went on line, found you,ran my finger on top of C926, felt slight bulge, went to radio shack and replace the capacitor, plug it in and presto Now my Wife has a brand new 36" working t.v. Again after reading all the posts i can't believe that thesae tvs last only 3-5 years i thought jvc was a top of the line brand, but now i feel different and won't buy anything from them. OK enough babble THANX AGAIN FOR SAVING THE GENERAL PUBLIC $100 - $200

        Went to bed last night with my JVC AV-36980 working just fine. Tried to turn it on today at around noon and NOTHING. Tried unplugging it plugging it back in and nothing. I'm an Electrical Engineer but did not want any part of taking this monster apart and troubleshooting it. I called a local(Louisville, KY) TV repair place and they said they charge $50.00 to pick it up and around $100.00 to fix and another $50.00 to bring it back. I got on the internet and found this site. I went to Radio Shack and picked up the 1000uf 35V capacitor and within 30 minutes of getting home with it my TV is working again. The part cost $1.59. The hardest part of the whole process was getting the cover back on the back of the TV by myself. In retrospect I would have gotten a 1000uf 50V capacitor instead of the 35V to prevent this from happening again. Thanks to all of you out there who posted on this site with a "fairly" simple fix if you are at all mechanically and electrically inclined. Sometimes having a common problem that a lot of people are having is better than having some rare one that would have required a visit to the repair shop.

        I also had the same issue of no power with my JVC AV-36980 (1998 model). Thanks to these messages I was able to fix my TV. Saved me a lot of headaches and money in trying to move the set as well as repair $. To reiterate a previous email "MAKE SURE TO BUY THE CAPACITOR WITH THE TWO WIRES COMING OUT OF THE SAME END OF THE CYLINDER... I.E. CAPACITOR WITH RADIAL CONNECTION)". I initially bought the axial version but adjusting the wire didn't help. I went back and got the radial version and that worked like a charm. Also, I had never soldered before but had the job done in 15 minutes. So it's not a tough task to take on. Thanks everyone.

      Had my JVC AV 27985 in Sept. 1988.Was working fine, then suddenly got no power when I turned it on last July 2004. TV was manufactured June 1998,in Mexico.This is not normal since I have a 14"magnasonic and 21" RCA TVs which I had since 1991 and still working fine.There must be a factory defect on this TV model.JVC should look into this and make a recall.Our common problem- No Power as if the TV was unplugged.I call on JVC management to be responsible enough to find out this defect.

For those who have the same no Power problem on JVC AV 27985, It\'s the power switch component- C926 ( 1000uf 35 Capacitor) at the center front end of the TV\'s chassis near the big white rectangular Resistor.But let an experience elec. technician to do the replacement due to the TV\'s High voltage danger even when unplug. Good luck!

        THANK YOU, Tom Pajaewski! My JVC AV-36980 stopped working - no power. On a call to a JVC certified repair shop, they told me they're not sure what the problem could be, but I would be looking at $300-400 repair. I replaced the C926 capacitor for under 2 dollars and now it works like a charm! Sounds like JVC indeed does have a problem with these models. Many thanks to this helpful board!

      Gentlemen: My 1999 JVC MX-J30 Serial 124C2803 began buzzing on switch on and the tape recorder has stopped functioning. My local technician wants a repair charge equal to the cost of my system, almost $200, purchased at Fred Meyers, here in Eugene OR. This is a splendid compact stereo system which I would like to have repaired within reason. Please let me know how to have my MX-J30 fairly serviced. Sincerely, Bob Rosen 4431 Fox Hollow Road #2 Eugene, OR Phone: 541-338-0247

      We have had our Jvc TV less than ayear and have had to have a tech look at it because it won't power up. After having it fixed once , in two weeks it did the same thing .YOu can take your JVC TV and shove it . I won't purchase another one .

        I second that. JVC has lost all credibility and any future purchase from me or anyone I ever talk to from here ever after.

      Well I just tried changing the part mentioned and mine didn't work the magic like everyone else. I was hoping I had the same problem since this sounds exactly like what it was. My 36980 just stopped working one day and does nothing but make a clicking noise. It's a steady click, anyone have a clue?

      I've got an 1998 AV-36980 that had the same problem. It was fine when I went to bed, but in the morning it wouldn't power on. I googled this type of tv and the problem which led me to this message board. I hoped that this was the problem. I pulled the circuit board out and C926 was bulging on both the bottom and top. I replaced it with one that I bought at Radio Shack for $1.70 and the TV turned on immediately. I'm 52 years old and have never messed with a circuit board, but this was an easy fix because of this message board. Thanks everyone.

        The orignal fix that I mentioned used a 35V capacitor - that was the OEM design. My TV went out again after about a year. I replaced the cap with two 50V caps in parallel (to get the same capacitance value as he original design) and have not had any trouble since then. If yours goes out again - beef up the voltage handling of the caps. seems there is an inrush of current that may be too high for this cap (a poor design) George

    Dear Sirs,
    Please advise if you can possibly supply us with a user manual for a JVC Digital Camcorder model NO: GR-DVXE
    Thanks,
    Peter.

    • JVC service or questions Stacy Sample - 19th Feb 2004 16:33
      Unfortunately that is a foreign camcorder and I cannot order it on the U.S. Market. That manual is in the European market for JVC. You may be able to contact JVC.com (international) and see if it is available through another source.

    My VCR HR-A237 gives always "Err" when i press the "prog/menu" button. Otherwise it works fine, but i can't get into the menu and can't program the VCR. Is there a way to reset the memory or to get into the service mode. Can i download an owners manuel from the internet?

    • JVC service or questions Stacy Sample - 23rd Feb 2004 16:50
      To be real honest, I am not a programming guru but I do know you can download manuals from JVC.com in the U.S. Where are you located? I believe if you go online to JVC.com and look under customer support > user manuals, you can get the manual that way. Hope this helps.
