Does anyone know of a source for service manuals for these old critters that isn't a link to a porn site or cost more than the device is worth today?

Specifically seeking: PVM-2530 PVM-5041Q & PVM-14N2U

Good morning!

Sony itself may still sell some of their manuals. I do not know of any specific online sources of them, though (posted copies or for sale).

I have worked on some of those models, including hundreds of the PVM-2530s. What is wrong with yours? I may be able to give you some tips.

I have the manual for the '2530 in paper, but it's filled with a lot of chaff that isn't really used in servicing such as a complete copy of the owners' manual. What part do you really need?

Mine are all on microfiche. I am looking for a good (read that inexpensive) way to get them on my computer.

Hi Bill,
If your close to one, a large library, think College/University, should have a microfilm/microfiche to PDF conversion setup.
