Hi,
From the symptoms you describe, it seems the high voltage flyback
autotransformer has failed along with the horizontal amplifier (they
are slaved to each other). The sound comes from the flyback
unit. I guess it must be a high pitched squeal, actually...
Well,
the only way to solve this is to get a technician take a look at the
set, I'm afraid. Repairs could cost upto $100 or more, depending upon
the number of components that need to be replaced,
Since the set is new, it may be worth getting
fixed up. If you decide to do so, call around, as shops have different
rates and different expertise. Many shops are hurting for work because
so many of the smaller sets are never repaired anymore; they are just
thrown out and replaced since the cost of a new set is sometimes as low
as the repair expense.
Hope that helps...Should you have any further questions,
please feel free to post them here.
P.S. Before you assign a rating, please
make sure that the issue is resolved or you are satisfied. If not, please post
back as to what you did, and/or any other questions you may have, and I will
try to assist you as best I can. Please do not assign an ‘Inappropriate’ or
‘Thanks for trying’ rating if your issue is not resolved after the first
response itself, as sometimes a bit of to and fro dialogue may be necessary
before we can find a fix or an answer to
your query.
If you find that the solution/answer I provided led you
to, or resulted in a fix, please close the ticket with a FixYa! rating.
I would be very grateful for your show of appreciation.
Thank you for using FIXYA!
Cheers,

There are many details involved to check the set. The process is beyond the practicality of an email.
You will need the service manual, a DVM, and depending on the circumstances you will need a scope.
The service manual may still be available from Sony.
Most of the time in these models of set, this type of fault is a failure in the scan amplifier sections; mainly in the horizontal output section. If this is the case, there may also be some damage in the power supply.
