Overview

This document outlines the electrical component replacement procedures for the Sony Xperia C2104, C2105, and S36h models. It serves as a comprehensive guide for technicians performing repairs, focusing on the identification, placement, and specific repair actions for various electrical components within these devices.

The manual begins by detailing the "Replaceable Components," providing a structured list of parts that can be replaced. Each entry in this section includes the component's position, a brief description of the component, its part number, and specific comments regarding its repair. These comments are crucial as they indicate the component's location on the circuit board (Primary or Secondary side), the recommended repair method (e.g., Hot Air, Soldering Tool, BGA Station, Bottom Heater), and cross-references to "Additional Repair Info" sections for more detailed instructions. This systematic approach ensures that technicians can quickly identify the necessary information for each component.

For instance, components like the D2202 LED White, various Coax Receptacles (FJP3001, FJP3301, J3001, J3401), Leaf Spring Receptacles (GP3701, GP3702, PAD4102), the USB micro B connector (J1601), Audio Jack (J2001), SIM and SD Connector (J4001), Pogopin (J4102), Input Switches (SK3901, SK3903), and the Microphone (U1901) are all listed with their respective repair details. The repair methods are clearly defined, with "HA" for Hot Air (removal & mounting), "ST" for Soldering Tool (removal & mounting), "HA/ST" for Hot Air removal and Soldering Tool mounting, "BGA" for BGA Station, and "BH" for Bottom Heater. This standardization of terminology helps ensure consistency and clarity in repair procedures.

The "Component Placing" section provides visual aids for locating components on the circuit board. It includes diagrams of both the primary and secondary sides of the board, allowing technicians to visually identify where each component is situated. While the document mentions an interactive "Component Placing document" accessible via a double-click icon for on-screen viewing, the hard-copy version includes static diagrams. This visual guidance is essential for accurate component identification and placement during repair.

The "Additional Repair Info" section is a critical part of the manual, offering step-by-step instructions and specific precautions for replacing key components. This section is organized by component, with each entry detailing the conditions under which a component should be replaced and any necessary protective measures. For example:

  • D2202 (Flash LED): To be replaced if the Flash LED is not working. Technicians are instructed to protect the Audio connector with Kapton tape during this repair.
  • FJP3001 (Main Antenna Coax Receptacle): Replaced if mechanically damaged, particularly if there are issues with bad network reception.
  • FJP3301 (Rx Diversity Antenna Coax Receptacle): Replaced if mechanically damaged, especially if there are problems with Rx Diversity antenna performance. Protection of the BtB connector with Kapton tape is advised.
  • GP3701, GP3702 (Antenna Connectors for NFC): Replaced if mechanically damaged or if NFC functionality is poor. Protection of the BtB connector with Kapton tape is required.
  • J1601 (USB micro B Connector): Replaced if mechanically damaged, affecting USB charging or data transfer. Protection of the RF and SIM connectors with Kapton tape is crucial.
  • J2001 (Audio Jack): Replaced if there is no audio from the headset. Protection of the Flash LED with Kapton tape is recommended.
  • J3001 (Main Antenna Coax Receptacle): Replaced if an open circuit is detected (1-2), indicating bad network performance. Protection of the SIM card and USB connectors with Kapton tape is necessary.
  • J3401 (WLAN Coax Receptacle): Replaced if an open circuit is detected (1-2), indicating bad WLAN performance. Protection of the Volume Switch with Kapton tape is advised.
  • J4001 (SIM and SD Connector): Replaced if mechanically damaged, leading to issues like no network, restarts, or failure to detect SIM/SD cards. Protection of the USB connector with Kapton tape is required.
  • J4102 (Pogopin Connector): Replaced if mechanically damaged, particularly if the phone is dead or won't power off. Protection of the BtB connector with Kapton tape is important.
  • PAD4102 (Grounding Pin): Replaced if mechanically damaged.
  • SK3901, SK3903 (Input Switches for Volume): Replaced if mechanically damaged, causing volume up/down not to work. Protection of the RF and BtB connectors with Kapton tape is necessary.
  • U1901 (Secondary Microphone): Replaced if there is no audio from the secondary microphone. Protection of the secondary microphone with Kapton tape is advised during replacement.

Throughout these instructions, the emphasis on protecting adjacent components with Kapton tape highlights a key maintenance feature: preventing damage to other parts during the repair process. This attention to detail ensures that repairs are performed safely and effectively, minimizing the risk of further issues.

The manual also includes general guidelines for electrical repair, directing technicians to a separate "Generic Repair Manual - electrical" (1220-1336) for broader information. After any electrical replacement, technicians are instructed to refer to the "Mechanical Test Instruction" (1273-1772) to ensure the device functions correctly. A critical warning is provided: "Do not remove shield can lids (Heat pasta are added and RF performance will be damaged)," underscoring the importance of maintaining the integrity of the device's thermal management and radio frequency performance.

Finally, a "Revision History" section tracks changes made to the document, providing transparency and ensuring that technicians are using the most up-to-date procedures. This includes initial releases and subsequent updates, such as changes to part numbers or the addition of new components to the repair list.

In summary, this manual is designed to facilitate efficient and accurate electrical component replacement for the specified Sony Xperia models. It combines detailed component lists, visual placement guides, specific repair actions with protective measures, and general repair guidelines to ensure high-quality maintenance and repair outcomes. The focus on clear instructions, standardized terminology, and safety precautions makes it an indispensable resource for service technicians.
