When trying to turn on the tv the power led blinks green a couple times, both fans in the back turn on, then the fans shut off and the led blinks red 5 times.
The 5 blinks is indicating the lamp ballast needs replacement your model uses the Sony lamp Ballast 147401211 for sony models

& KDS-60XBR2 amd LDS-R60XBR2
Which is available at the bottom of the page at the following link. The ballast comes with installation instructions,

Thanks for the solution. Does installation of the new ballast require soldering?
no not at all. Its just remove a few screws then unplug the old ballast board and then plug in the replacement and then put back in the couple of screws that hold it in.
that sounds easy enough. I ordered the ballast. will let you know if this fixes the problem.
That should solve the issue due to the 5 blinks. They do have free tech support if you need any assistance during or after the install
Coulda bad lamp ballast cause a green tint before it fails ?
no the green tint could eaiallsy be caused by a weak color wheel though

it is a bad fan. it also could be a power supply. Quite often the real problem is dirt clogging up the fan(s) to the point that they need to be replaced. Operation of the set in a dirty environment is not a good idea

If you are positive that the fan is still running and that it isn't an over heating issue, I would venture to say you need a new dlp lamp. Your model uses a Sony XL 5100 dlp lamp. You can grab one over at DLPLamps.com.

There are three fans the one that usually fails is located on top of the optical block and cannot be reached by the owner unless you take the set apart yourself. What is happening is that one of the fans are not spinning fast enough or has stopped altogether. The best solution is to replace all three fans cleaning may not be enough to get a slow fan up to speed, and the tech should blow out the dust in the duct work. This is what the tech coming out will (or should) be doing. Also some fans will have an intermittent startup, and cause this intermittently, so it is a good idea just to replace the fans instead of just cleaning them.
