Take care to save the screws necessary for reassembly.
JVC TVs consist of many parts and screws. The rear cover and many of the components beneath it must be removed before the front filter panel can be detached. Despite the numerous parts and general complexity of the operation, you can still perform this procedure in your home or office, irrespective of your level of familiarity with JVC TV disassembly.
Instructions
1. Turn off the JVC TV and ensure the power cord is disconnected from the power source. This is important for your own safety.
2. Disconnect the TV from any other external devices, such as DVD players or your cable/satellite receiver box.
3. Lay a towel down on the floor of the area where you will be performing disassembly. Carefully lay the JVC TV face down on the towel.
4. Use a Phillips head screwdriver to remove the nine screws clearly situated along the center of the rear cover of the TV.
5. Use a Phillips head screwdriver to remove the 12 screws that run around the perimeter of the JVC TV's rear cover.
6. Pull the loose rear cover off the unit.
7. Locate the side speaker covers on the unit. There is one thin side speaker cover on either side of the rear of the unit.
8. Remove the four screws from the right side speaker cover. Take off the cover.
9. Remove the four screws from the left side speaker cover in the same way. Place this cover to the side.
10. Store all your screws in a small plastic bag for later use. You will need these for reassembly.
11. Find the horizontal piece at the very bottom center of the exposed back of the JVC TV. This is the terminal bracket. Remove the seven screws on this piece and take out the bracket.
12. Find the black earth wire on the very center of the exposed rear of the TV. Take out the one screw holding this wire down.
13. Remove the screw attaching the green and yellow earth wire. This is located to the bottom right of the black earth wire.
14. Locate the line filter PWB piece, which is a vertically-oriented rectangular plastic piece that looks like a cover. It lies directly in-between the two earth wires. Remove the two screws holding it in place and take out the cover.
15. Find the square audio PWB piece near the bottom center of the exposed JVC unit. This piece is unique due to the number of wires running into connectors on its face. There are seven connections made here. Disconnect each.
16. Remove the four screws holding the audio PWB piece in. Remove these, then pull out the audio PWB.
17.Locate the display interface PWB directly to the left of where the audio PWB resides. This is a slightly smaller square cover piece. Disconnect the nine connectors on its face and remove the six total screws holding it down. Take out the display interface PWB.
18. Find the chassis base. This rectangular piece serves as the base for the audio and display PWBs and lies beneath where they resided. Ensure the screw holding the earth wire here is removed.
19. Remove the two screws on the perimeter of the chassis base that hold it in place. Pull up and remove the chassis base.
20. Remove the two back frame brackets that arch across from top to bottom on either side of the back of the JVC TV. These brackets reach from the top of the front display filter to the bottom of the front display filter. Remove the eight screws holding each down, then pull up to remove them.
21. Find the upper bracket. This thinner bracket runs horizontally across the top of the rear of the JVC TV. Take out the two screws to release it, but do not pull it out yet.
22. Remove the six screws attached to the upper glass holder. The screen runs directly into this holder, and the upper glass holder encases the upper bracket. Slide the holder out, then pull out the upper bracket.
23. Remove the front filter panel of the JVC TV by gently pulling it off.
