If the Standby light is blinking at the front panel of the TV, it seems that there is an internal malfunction occurred in the TV. I will forward a link to a page where you can get more information and troubleshooting steps for this issue. http://www.kb.sony.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=C399467 Please perform the steps provided on the page. If the issue still persists then service of the TV is required.

Above is your user manual and support site, to download.

Worth a look at above, Hmmm??

http://www.eserviceinfo.com/index.php?what=search2&searchstring=sony+kdl-46xbr4

Above is your service and repair manual for download.

What is happening is there is an internal "Fault" that is causing the Protection Circuitry , to detect the problem, and attempt to shut down the set. When we keep restarting the set, it may work briefly again, because as soon as it shuts down, the "Faulty" component(s) cool down?, and the "Fault" ostensibly "Clears" so the PSU starts up again, only for the component(s) to heat up, whatever, again and fail, so it shuts down, and if left unattended, this would continue on until the part eventually failed. Any fault that involves the power supply is usually quite serious, and needs a professional, usually, unless one is familiar with servicing current day, televisions.

my professional recommendation, you should get a "Quote" for repair, from, an, Approved Service Center. Now, this point is very important for a good result, Always contact, their "Local" or a, "Head Office" Sony, in your case. Ask them, for a referral to an authorised servicing center, where you ask for a "Quote". Now, when you get the information you want, then you can decide as to repair of replacement.

The reason we want an approved agent, is that way, all the engineers are trained on their own brand sets, they have seen almost all faults, and will get the job done quicker, and for less cost, and usually have parts on hand, also sometimes, there has been a service bulletin in issued and the repair may be subsided or even free. There are many, many, many reasons that display this symptom, one must work through the troubleshooting steps to isolate and identify, the Cause and repair that and any damage done.

Open the tv and look for blown capacitors. These will be easy to see as they will have popped tops on them (not flat). Once you find the problem capacitors you will need to replace with the same uF value and a higher Voltage value as capacitors are rated "up to" the value listed on the side of them. EX: (in the tv) 1000uF 10V....(replace with) 1000uF 35V

Hello.
I am certified SONY Technician and I can help you for free.
Self-diagnostic function in your TV indicated that you have problem with T-CON board. This is video processing board attached to the panel and acting as video adapter between Main board and LCD panel itself. As long as I remember T-CON is considered to be a part of LCD Panel by SONY and have to be covered by manufacturer warranty for 2 years from date of purchase.
So - please locate your receipt form the store - they WILL ask for it.
Have a good day!
Russ.

LCD Displaying Red instead of Black, Vertical Lines in Display

I had a similar problem where the screen went to a pink shade periodically. Sony sent me a memory stick, with download instructions, that fit into one of the back ports. The problem has gone away. It was a software correction.
