Mine never turned on but the blue power light would blink.I disconnected the upper y buffer and got light on the bottom half of screen and the blinking stopped.I have the upper board on order and I think this will fix my problem.There is a blink code somewhere,just count how many blinks.Start pulling connectors from power supply and when it quits blinking you've found the one,could also be the power supply with bad cap.

SOURCE: Tv cuts off and green light flashes

If your set was manufactured around July 2005, you may need a firmware upgrade to solve this issue. On the Sony website you can enter your model # and serial # to see if you TV is affected. If so, it is easy to have done and may be free from Sony. It sounds like the issue they described in the writeup on the required formware update. I had mine done within few months of when i bought it (purchased in Dec 2005) and it has been working flawlessly since.

Good luck!

SOURCE: TV powers up initially, but shuts down within seconds.

These TV's are somewhat sensitive to internal heat. It appears your sensor has triggered an overheat. This doesnt mean you still have the heat issue, it just saying it needs to be replaced or reset, either way it is not something you can do in your home. Taking it to your local authorized shop will ensure proper repairs, about $90 worth.

My Sony KP-46WT500 screen shows the tv image in blue only for a few seconds, then it goes completely blank (as if it were off). Do I need to replace the bulbs?

It is rear projection TV that use 3 picture tubes of red-green-blue to show color picture on tv front screen.
Do you see standby red light blinking when TV shuts off after showing blue image for a while?
If red standby light is blinking, please count it how many times it blinks, there would be 3 seconds pause between blinks so count pause to pause and post it here to find out possible solution.
Thanks.

Power problem

Three blinks - B+ over voltage protection (OVP), unit goes to the standby mode then displays the 3 blink fault. This is also a problem in the power supply circuit, check T603 and R672.

Hitachi 55VG825 rear proj television blinking light and screen doesn't light up

Refer to owners manual ! Blinking indicates the type of fault that is occuring on all your tv sets. example : power light on red - indicator light beside it green but blinks rapidly for half a second rapidly then shuts off. This refers to a faulty lamp or a lamp that is near its expiration. Read your manuals if indicators refer to easy repair sweet, but if it says call tech then bummer...

TV shuts off automatically

I Can Assure You That This Problem Is Associated With 2 Capicators On The Power Supply Board.
