Sony WEGA Fails to Turn On Stand-by Timer Flashes 7 Times

Dear Jaime, We have a Sony WEGA KV-27HS420 Hi-D TV we purchased June 2005 no problems since then until today, when it failed to turn on. The standby timer light flashes 7 times. We tried unplugging it from surge protector for 60 secs and plugging it back into wall socket as suggested by website, to no avail. Does the 7 flashes tell you something specific about the problem? Thanks in advance for any insights. Thad in GA During a thunder storm my t.v shut off and the red light started to flash 7 times. I tried turning it off then on again and you can see that it tries to turn on then shuts off again flashing the light. I checked the bulb but it is o.k. is there a fix for this? the standby timer keeps on flashing then turns off but no picture or sound how can i fix this thank you

IC/high power transister(s) and/or other componentshas gone bad gone bad - usually from a power surge. These will have to be replaced. A technician should check these out for you.

The problem with this set that blinks 7 times is related to the relay in the power supply. I replaced it on the exact same set and the tv now fires up and is functioning properly..

Follow the instructions from the image provide and see if that works, if it does not work; you have a hardware failure in your TV. The hardware failure could be the HOT or flyback transformer.
Let me know if you need further assistance.

Have Sony KV-34HS420 with no picture or sound. Timer/Stand By light flashes 7 times with pause in between. What is the likely problem and cost to repair?

Hold hair dryer to back right side on high heat for a couple of seconds while you hit the power button several times. It only took 2 times for my set to power on. Good Luck!

Changed lamp and TV won't turn on, power light flashes 3 times

Hi,
Red light blinking 3 times shows problem with lamp cover.
Lamp cover is not fixed securely in your tv after lamp replacement. Lamp cover is first thing that was removed to replace lamp, check lamp cover and make sure its back in place properly.
Thanks.

Sony Vega Service Codes

KV-32HS510 and KV-27HS420, seven times blink error code shows problem in Horizontal deflection circuit.

There are many possibilities like dry solder joints, weak capacitors, Horizontal transistor short or flyback transformer fried etc.

If you have little experience of TV repair and good solder skills and have necessary tools to test / check defective parts, then you can make it. you also need to have related service manual to see board location, schematics and part numbers.
