Most likely it is the green CRT that is failing. Unfortunately Sony does not support these models much anymore. What they require is to send the CRT with the Optic Coupler to them so they can mount a new green CRT to the Coupler then send it back to you. For the cost and time it takes to do this I recommend you replace the set with a LCD, LED, flat screen set.
I hope this helps,

The green picture tube has an internal short. Happened a lot with that model. The tubes are no longer availible. But a reputable company called Video Display will rebuild the tube completely. But the tube must be pulled and shipped to them. Most repair shops would charge around $400 to $500 for the complete job.

This is a set with bad picture tubes-not available except on rebuild basis.
Are you seeing bright green screen and then set shuts off?
Let me know so I can help--8 blinks is AKB error.
