Sony KV-13FS100 - channels cycling

This is a 4 yr old Sony KV-13FS100. The channels on the screeen display cycle through on their own. The reote is inoperative, and the channel buttons on the tv do not work. I have unplugged the set and plugged it back in without resolution. Help

    The remote has no impact on the TV at all. We don't use the remote for this TV.

    The numbers cycle down over and over, but channel itself does not change.

    When I push the volume buttons, the channel does change, but not consistently.

    Unplugging the TV for 1 minute and then plugging it in has no effect.

    It is connected directly to cable (no box).

    I still have the same problem when the cable is disconnected.

    Great, can I buy one of those at Wal-mart?

    Just kidding. I'll take in to the repair center next week. Kind of a PITA though.

I also have a Sony Trinitron model KV-13FS100 (chassis BA6, mfg July 2002) which is experiencing the same problems. I have made the checks suggested by pauldonp above. The channels cycle 1,2,3,4,5 etc. The remote has no effect. The channel up/dwn buttons on the TV have no effect. However when I press volume up or volume down on the TV it stops the channels from cycling for a moment before they continue again. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You need to change the control board or the touch buttons

  • Ginko
    Ginko Apr 12, 2008

    Change the control board, it is unlikely the problem is only with the control buttons. In any case check all the buttons contact , in case the problem is just a contact. More likely something on control board is blown , change the whole board.

Count the number of blinks occur at one time switch ON. These blinks are fault indications. After counting it, check this link for more details. There are details about Sony blinking codes. Search the site by brand name and model number to your TV in its search box.

6. Simply turn the power off and back on for the change to take effect. Your volume problems should now be fixed.
