20 Most Recent Sony FD Trinitron WEGA KD-36FS130 36" TV Questions & Answers

Hello, Welcome to Fixya.com

If the mute is ok, you want to check if your have a cable or sat box that the mute on those are ok as well, if so then your looking at a internal issue with the TV that would involve repair.

Try this

1. unplug the tv wait 10-15 seconds then plug it back into the wall outlet.

Also

2. unplug any cable boxes or sat boxes that might be causing the issue.

If you still are having issues you might want to check it into a local repair shop near you, but take this advice for what its worth you might wind up paying more for the repair then the purchase of a nice flat panel.

Make sure if you do take it into a shop that there registered with the BBB and do not have complaints registered as those shops could end you paying more money.

Thanks for making Fixya your first choice, We can Fix most things but have solutions for everything.

Check and replace its CRT base socket.

You need to have original Sony TV remote and press Display button on it, on-screen display will disappear.

Hello
There is some sort of indirect short inside your TV. It is in the main circuit board. Most of this kind of fault in Sony Tvs are related with horizontal output stage. You just replace the horizontal output transitor [which drives the Line Output Transformer] of your TV first. If the transitor is leaky, the above said falult may occur. If it doesn't help Line Output Trnasformer [LOT] may need replacement. Check whether the replaced transistor overheats within seconds or minutes. If it overheats the LOT is faulty. Ok.

Will you please provide more details> Is the line across the screen at its middle?

There are two adjustments for the guns on those old tube type sets.

Fault is with the horizontal phasing. Contact any experienced service technician. This is not a user reparable fault. A skilled work indeed.

Five blinks - AKB circuit (automatic kine bias), the timer/standby indicator blinks for about 30 seconds then goes to the self-diagnosis function. Something is wrong with the video. Check video out, Q705, 732, 761 and other components on the C board, also check Q218, 219, 220 on the A board. In addition, unit could be in IK blanking, try turning up screen slightly.

tried to reset with factory settings.

Check for it at its main power supply regulator section.

Check the fuse inside and then have some qualified tech give you an estimate (heavy TV set).

I have a Sony Trinitron KV-35S66 36" TV my Stand by/Timer Light keeps flashing, I have tried all fixes, it's 9 1/2 years old is is worth fixing/cost.......no money!!!!

From your description the flyback transformer has failed causing the high voltage to load down, if the TV is 10 years old or more, consideration should be given investing in a new set.

I'm getting the same thing - I've had my Wega for about 10 years now...I wouldn't expect this thing to be crapping out already given how much I paid for it back in the day.
Bottom line, I haven't figured out how to get rid of the random text characters...we joke and say that the Chinese are hacking our TV again.
