Hello... I have a problem with my Sony KDL-40S3000 the standby light blinks 11 times over and over. It was playing fine then just saw a thin line horizontaly (it was made by color squares) and picture went out... I got it to come back on for like 10 seconds but i did the same thing again.

***UPDATE***
I reset the TV alot of time (too many to remember) and to my surprize it started working fine again!!!... hope it doesn't act up again =)

So I replace the Convergance IC's and a pico fuse and it works fine now but still blinks..  Is there a way to reset the tv so it doesn't blink or do I still  have a problem?

Anyone have an idea of the cost to repaie a sony wega KV-36XBR800 tv with 7 blinking standby lights. The tv works just fine sometimes and at other times it won't turn on and we get the 7 blinking lights. One day it will work and the next day we get the 7 blinking lights. I don't want to pay the service man to come out and diagnose the problem if it is something that is very expensive to fix. If that is the case, i would rather put the money into a new tv. I do like this tv, however, and will fix it if the repair cost is reasonable. Any rough ideas of the cost to fix this problem? Thanks

Thanks. I will try to reset my sony... I believe I get 6 blinks ,I get audio but no picture. 52 in hdtv .

Larry,

I am not sure how to contact you directly but I require assistance with correcting the convergence on my Sony HD Rear projection TVs. I was able to purchase the service manuals and enter service mode but there is sometimes a reference to using a signal input to manually correct the convergence. Aside from the crosshatch that is standard with the tv, is there a was to input this 'signal' grid to help with GRB color convergence? Thanks.

OK ThanX, this is the right forum, from the starting post it says

"Ten blinks - Check Q8014 and Q8013 for shorts, leakage, or bad solder connections on the " D" board. If the transistors are bad, check R8051 and IC8005, also on the "D" board"

If some one can verify that this has worked for them and any hints/tips they came across, I will order the bits and have a go...

I have a Sony KDF-55xs955 rear projection LCD purchased in Nov. 2006 that will not power on and the green LED is blinking 6 times.  We had a service technician come out to take a look and immediately said the issue was a $450 power supply without even touching the TV.  I have now looked at a couple of forums that say 6 blinks = No Horizontal (H STOP), no raster, which doesn't sound much like a power supply to me.  Is the tech trying to rip me off?  Is there a way to know what it should cost me?

my tv is blinking 7xs and idk where to go from here so if someone cld help me i wld appreciate that
