Check your sound setting under the TV menu. Most newer TVs only have two 10watt speakers...so maybe a quality sound system!

It is a diagnostic code. Refer to this; http://www.agoraquest.com/viewtopic.php?forum=70&topic=31721

Try cleaning both fans and inspect the lamp. Usually quite obvious if the lamp is bad (ie. blown tube/shattered glass) Make sure you secure the lamp door properly after.

Hi
It is symptom of dying lamp in tv, replace it to solve tv issue.
Lamp replacement procedure is easy and would be written in user manual.
Thanks.

I had the same problem and it costs 200.00 dollors for the lamp that bad

ensure the lamp cover door is firmly pressing the kill switch and the red light will stop and u can turn on the telly

look for a coax cable connection on the back of your tv, connect antenna to booster, booster to tv, then in the set-up menu of tv, go to channel set-up, scan for channels

It's in standby mode.

Do a reset and see what happens

While holding down the reset button on the remote
Press the power button on the tv
(The tv will turn itself off the back on)
Now release the reset button

It sounds like the lamp needs replaced.


Please rate this a fixya

Hold the up arrow on the remote while holding it in push the power button on the TV. The tv will reset to original new out of box condition.

If there is no pause in the flashing sequence then you need to have a servicer look at it. This is a new one for me. To many different things could be wrong with it.

thats caused by the optical block which is very expensive to replace. Sony has had alot of issues with the blue dots on the screen its not worth repairing due to the high cost of the optical block

the tv will try to reboot a few times. just let i try and eventually it will start blinking red. if you could count the red blinks then i can further assist you.

Projection TV sets have two very common problems. One is convergence ( 3D/Warped video) the other is CRT fluid ( Dull Video). Below are more details for both items. Also, complete repair kits with instructions and repair support are avail from site such as www.TvRepairKits.com Common Problem #1) Convergence has gone outProjection TV sets need to have all three colors - RED - BLUE - GREEN - lined up correctly on the screen in order for the video to look normal. When its out of alignment the video will look 3D, wavy, distorted, etc. Most of the time you just need to adjust your convergence in the TV menu. If you cannot adjust it in the menu - then your convergence is broken and needs to be repaired. This is a very common failure on these projection sets and a fairly simple DIY fix. All projection sets including Samsung, RCA, Sony, Philip Magnavox, Panasonic, Pioneer, Akai, GE, JVC, Toshiba, and others at some point will have the same problem. Common Symptoms include....

• Screen looks 3D
• Colors don't line up
• One or more colors can't be adjusted when using the convergence menu.
• Screen is bowed or warped.
• TV shuts off after powering on. The power light will blink. TV may also make a chirping noise.

Here are some pics of convergence problems. SOLUTION #1What you will need to do is convergence. You can get a repair kit from TvRepairKits.com . It includes replacement parts,step by step instructions, support, etc.Common Problem #2) CRT Fluid is CloudyProjection TV tubes have a liquid coolant that is used to keep them from overheating. After many years the coolant in the blue and green tubes will become cloudy and cause the screen to look dull, red/orange, etc. You may even see halos around images. Picture of a set that needs the fluid changed. TV set after fluid change SOLUTIONWhat you will need to do is replace the coolant and clean the crt. You can get a repair kit from TvRepairKits.com . It includes replacement coolant,step by step instructions, support, etc.

Your set uses red, blue, and green lcd panels to produce your colors. The lamp provides the illumination. What has happened is the blue lcd panel has been damaged in the area you are seeing the yellow. The fix for this is to have the optical block (also known as the engine) replaced. This is a very expensive part,... you may want to move on to a flat panel tv.

most likely a defective optical block --very expensive part and not for the novice to try to replace tristsate model can usually repair them for about 350.00 but you would have to remove and sent out unless they have 1 in stock
