Top 20 Sony FD Trinitron KD-36XS955 36" TV Questions & Answers

get the sky box repaired

Count how many times the standby light blinks at one time. These blinking are fault indication. You can get an idea about the faulty circuit part inside, from these number of blinks. After make it sure, if you wish to get more details about Blinking Codes to Sony TV sets, check this link.

backlight problem

Hi,
The Standby/Power light of the TV blinks when there is any internal malfunction in the TV.
The self-diagnostic function of the projection TV will cause the STANDBY light to blink or flash when the television detects an issue. The number of times the STANDBY light flashes corresponds to a specific issue. As per the two examples below, some of the issues may be resolved without the need for service.
If the STANDBY light flashes three times in sequence, the lamp cover is not securely attached. Reattach the lamp cover to resolve this issue.
If the STANDBY light flashes four times in sequence, the TV may be overheating. To resolve this issue, ensure that the back of the TV is well ventilated.
If the flash sequence is not listed above or the light continues to flash, follow the steps below to perform a power reset:
Try the following steps to check if the issue can be resolved.
Turn off the television.
Unplug the television power cord from the electrical outlet.
Let the television remain without power for 60 seconds.
Plug the power cord back into the electrical outlet.
If the television is plugged into a power strip or surge protector, remove it from the power strip or surge protector and plug it directly into the wall outlet. If the issue is resolved, the problem is with the power strip or surge protector and not the television.
If the issue continues to occur, service may be required.

Thanks for using Fixya.

Please replace 2 ICs on DZ board of tv to solve the issue as discussed in chat session.
Thanks.

It is one of two issues, the blue video driver is defective, or the blue gun in the picture tube is open. This will need a tv tech to varify the problem and suggest a course of action.

A protection circuit has cut in - possibly due to a fault in the line output stage (flyback transformer could be short-circuit and horizontal output transistor could also be shorted).

Assuming the power supply/HT rail is all OK, replace the above parts, touch up any suspect solder joints, check and replace any capacitors (electrolytic and the tuning caps in the collector of the horizontal transistor - always replace these caps (rated at around 2kV - 6kV) whenever you replace the flyback)

CAN I USE HEAD PHONE IN MI TV

Sounds like the power supply.

Please explain what it is that you are trying to program.
Is it the remote you are trying to program? Or the set itself? I can help if you give me more details.

On your component cable (GREEN/BLUE/RED) check the connector for the RED on on both the TV and the device it is connected to. Also check the the RED for the VIDEO and the RED for the AUDIO are not switched on both the TV and the device as well.

Good Luck...

You need a new Lamp

well intermittinly shutting down only thing i can say is go thru that board may be getting good reading on transistor pull them out recheck
sounds like a bad cap make sure nothing is soldered together start from the beginning good luck shad tv man

The blinking light is an error code. you need to count how many times it blinks, and check a service manual to see what the problem is, or ask a service person.

Some models require two buttons to be pressed together for menu access - usually at the bottom or side.

First thing to do is reset ( see link below) and see if it resets otherwise if problem continues it will need some work

Seven blinks - High voltage shutdown. The high voltage has exceeded 33k and the unit goes immediately into safety shutdown. Check power supply regulation and horizontal circuits. There are some common breakdowns in the High Voltage circuits in this set. One is the flyback transformer. Another is a small high voltage capacitor in the sweep corrction circuit. There is a cap that goes open in a high voltage circuit (C6532) which needs to be replaced.

Thread on your model

Has anyone heard of something like this where the cable box/service is causing popping sounds? yes & it is common problem. And is this something I should be concerned about causing damage to the TV's speakers? not at all. The Sony tech-support representative (over the phone) diagnosed it further to a problem not with the TV but with the cable box/service because there were no popping sounds when I played a DVD on my Playstation 2 that is attached to the TV. they are right that your problem is not due to tv. it is due to cable box/service? yes but not defective it reqires to change the way you have connected tv to cable.please call tech to get it connected in such a way so that you do not get popping sound when you you put off cable box.

1 check remote control. 2 tv comes to stand by to protect itself 3 there might be problem in power supply section 4 & if it is ok check horizontal section. 5 call skilled tech to fix it. 6 it is not a major problem.
