Is power at U3238 input
Tx: C3208
Rx: C3202
>-20dBm?
Check parts around
U3238. If OK,
replace U3238.
Control voltage
at R705
0.3<Vdc<10.6?
Is Vdc at R3200 high at
Rx and low at Tx and
R3202 high at Tx and
low at Rx?
Is Vdc = 4.55V at pin
3 of Q3227 during
Rx and at Q3267
during Tx?
For Tx: Check and visual inspect D3246-
D3249, L3250, C3251, C3252, C3254,
L3256, C3258.
For Rx: Check and visual inspect D3206-
D3209, L3210, C3211, C3212, C3214,
L3216, C3217.
.
Is Vdc at C742 5V,
Vdc at C726, C734,
C737 2.775V?
Is Vdc at Y701
pin 4 2.775V?
16.8MHz at pin
3 of Y701 and

of D723?
2.775Vdc at pin
4 of D722?
Check and visual
inspect U746 circuitry.
Fault found?
Check 2.775V and
5V supply.
Check 2.775V
supply.
Replace Y701
and/or C736.
Replace the
suspected
components.
Replace U702.
Check D722, D723,
