    Thanks for advice. What would replacement unit cost in AUD? I have the tech. manual for replacement of part and have some experience in electronic service/repair. Would removal of unit yield any component replacement to save on cost?

    At that price why would I bother. I am happy to have you source and send new board. I'll install. How to pay? How long for delivery? Delivery cost? Xmas mail will be slow. Let me know. Merry Xmas.

    Xmas over now. Time to fix TV. G3 power board A-1166-145A. Australian voltage. No obvious burnouts or scorched componentry on existing board. If you could source that would help, I have been searching web but part is hard to come by through normal channels, second hand one in canada (no thanks).

    I'm no expert, but I cannot find a fan in this unit. Any ideas, the service manual does not show one either.

7 blinks in the this series(KLV) means there is a short in the power supply board. The easiest way to fix this would be to swap out the board. I can find you a replacement if you want to try fixing this yourself.

    Believe me component level repair is extremely tough on this set. However if you want to give it a shot and since you have the service manual, start by checking the 5V stand by voltage line for shorted components. You should set your meter to contnuity test mode and test each component for continuity. A shorted component would cause the meter to emit a loud beep or read abnormal resistance values. The replacement board usually costs about 100 AUD.

    Well I do not sell the board. I can find it for you. However I want to be 100% sure that you get the exact replacement. Hence it would be better if you can just get me the part number off the board, so that I can link you to the source. Merry Xmas to you too :)

  • Anonymous Dec 27, 2010

    Since you have opened the set and had a look I would like to be absolutely sure that we have narrowed it down first. Is there anything else after KLV-S40A10? I am asking coz models with slightly different model numbers often have a vast difference when it comes to what the self-test error codes mean. I will find you the part don't worry, but first lets be 100% sure of the exact location of the problem.

    Sai.

    Ok. That changes the situation. 7 Blinks on this particular model indicates that there is excess temperature inside the unit . The first thing I would try if I were you would be to get a can of compressed air and empty it on the back of air. The next thing to try would be to test the DC voltage that each of the fan is getting and let me know.

    Weird! I have seen most bravia units have a coolant system! Anyways I do not have a service manual for the AU version of this model. So if you can just upload it to mediafire.com and get me the direct link..

  • Anonymous Dec 27, 2010

    Ok. I got it. If you don't mind I am gonna take a break for a couple of hours. I just took a terrible antibiotic and my head feels like its too big for my body! I will get back to you once the side-effects recede a bit.

  • Anonymous Dec 27, 2010

    Hi there, I am back up. Sorry for the delay. I have had a look at the service manual and it confirms my first diagnosis. See the chart on page 5 . 7 Blinks = Over Voltage Protection on AC circuit. But since you could not source a board, it might be a good idea to get a proper working board from sony. As you have seen the schematics are terrible. No voltage or component markings!

I have a Sony bravia KLV 32bx300 LCD tv. From like 2 months the tv isn't turning on , it tries to turn on for 3 times with green light on and it stops starting and tv goes to 6 red LED blinks, when th

These blinks [flashes] are fault indication (Error Codes). From the number of blinks occur at one time switch ON, you can get an idea about the faulty circuit section inside it. This will make repair easy. These are called blinking codes. Make sure about the exact number of blinking of the standby/power LED, by switching On & OFF the set, for at least two times. Count it carefully. If you wish to get some details, check the site linked here. It has details about blinking codes, and fault locating procedure, to many popular brand TVs and other devices. http://electronicshelponline.blogspot.com/

Klv32s310A sony bravia gets start on with green light and after a second turns to stand by mode blinking the red light 6 times after each 2 second interval

Hello Sagar,
green led means tv powered on and status ok.
Red blinking light almost always means defect, overcurrent or overload.
6 blinks for Sony lcd flat tv means trouble in backlight circuit, or backlight inverter (backlight illumination or lighting makes your tv screen visible).
common problems in the inverter circuit, which drives the backlight, or shorted drivers, or short-circuit transformers or open circuits.
You should find the problem in the inverter circuit, or in the power supply board or in the main board.
Also look for bad capacitors (electrolytic caps) which are bulged and swollen on top.
Decoupling plugs from printed circuit boards can help you in finding the problem board by elimination method.
If you power up the set after unplugging certain plugs on f.e. the inverter board , this could result in getting a green power led and concluding that this board is faulty.

succes,
Walter from Antwerp, Belgium.

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!

We have a 2007 Sony Bravia 46" KDL-46VL130. There is not sound or picture. When we power it on the green light comes on blinking once and then the red light blinking once and then the green light stays on....

Does the front light stays green ? Or goes back to red ? The back-light going on/off maybe the problem, but it shoul return with a red blinking led (4 times ?) and if so it can be a power inverter problem.

Standby LED blinks 4 times

Hi there,

4 blinks on a Sony Bravia indicates a backlight/inverter (aka ballast) problem. These ballasts are regrettably only available with an entire LCD panel. :( You may perchance be able to find a parts outfitter online that scraps out TVs and have a used ballast.

Typical backlight problem on an LCD shows up as the screen lighting up for a second or two and going back off. The 4 blinks just confirms your problem.
