Sony put i pic killer circut in there tvs. if the tube was not
giving the proper feed voltage on the guns in
the pic tube it blinks off ,sound good no pic.
if you turn up the brightness
on the flyback transfromer you can
get a little more life out of it ,

I had one of these in the 36" version blinking 4 times but it was not the vertical. It was the color amp ic at the crt board that was shorted and an open resistor. The repair for this, if my diagnosis is correct, should not be more than $100. Ask for an estimate though to be on the safe side. Thanks for using fixya.
