Tv will not turn on

The tv will act like it is trying to turn on, then it goes off and then four blinking red lights on the power light appear.

  • Anonymous Nov 28, 2007

    How did the Technician determine that the fan has failed? Is there some written source that spells out that the blinking red LED Power light blinking 4 times points to fan failure?



    The reason I ask is because my SONY KDS55A2000 is doing exactly as indicated in this problem. However, my Sony Extended Care Service support insists that the projection lamp is the cause for the 4X blinking LED

    Power light.



    I believe they are wrong, but have ordered a replacement lamp just in case.

Sony bravia kdl55hx729 3d led tv turns on 3 seconds shows picture than four red flashes

Hello,
the error light sequence that you are seeing is indicating a "backlight error". Most likely you have a bad inverter board -the board that powers up the back-lights behind the display panel. They might be available via ebay if you are a DIYer, or you need to call for sony service.
Good Luck!

Turn power on, green light comes on, goes off, red light blinks once, pause, then four blinks.

Take the tv aparts,the tv power supply board that the board where the power a/c cord is plug it into it.Check the tv power supply board carefully for dying capacitors like bulging up or puffing up onto it tops.Have all the tools.Now basic electronic also can do basic soldering work too?Yes check and replace all dying capacitors.Or tries like Shopjimmy.com,Ebay.com to buy a whole refurbish power supply board for the replacement.

Hello, I have a 42"

Sounds like a backlight is out. If its still under warranty, exchange it. First try unplugging it for two minutes to reset the t.v.

My 42" Phillips Tv will no longer turn on. The power light continues to blink in red and when unplugged and plugged back in it almost acts as though it will turn on again but goes back into turn off mode...

you have a bad power supply, and the tv goes to protect mode, undo the back and look for any bulged or open cap, and replace it.

How do you tune Sky+ remote into Sony KDL46W5710 Television

The Sky+ remote should automatically default to Sony TV's. Leave the batteries out for a few minutes and try again. The Code for Sony is 0000.
Or try this :-

With TV and sky box on.
Press the 'TV' button on the remote.
Hold down the 'select' and the 'red' button (of the four coloured buttons) together, until the red light on the remote blinks twice. (takes 2 seconds)
Press the 'TV' button again.
Now enter four zeros, the red light on the remote should blink twice.
Press the 'standby' button (top right).
If the TV turns off, then press 'select' and the light should blink twice again, job done.

If the TV does not turn off then press 'TV' followed by 'standby' again.
Alternate pressing 'TV' 'Standby' until the TV turns off.
When it does, finish by pressing 'Select.
Check the red light on the remote, if it blinks 3 times, then it has run out of options for 0000.

TV doesn't turn on

You really should give make & model number when posting, it helps us immensely, your lamp and possibly the ballast is bad, start with a new lamp first, odds are very good that it will fix your problem, can`t help more without manufacturer and model number, good luck, ps, order the original lamp, generics are junk and a waste of your money.
