Understanding Sony Television Blinking Codes

Many of the later model Sony TV’s have a built in self-diagnosis function. If the timer/standby indicator is blinking, this could be an indication of a problem with the unit. The diagnostic blinking will occur automatically with no action required by you to engage it. Read on to learn what these diagnostic codes mean, and how you can use that information to get up and running again.

Hello fellow techies!
Hoping you can help me! My roommates TV out of the blue just kicked the bucket.. Its a Sony LCD KLV-32m1.. When I push the power button NO LIGHT comes on.. Nothing happens.. No sounds, no flicker, nothing.. Power chord is fine and its not the outlet.. I'm 99% positive its the power supply which I have taken out already.. Looked at all the capacitors and regulators for any swelling or leakage... Nothing appears to be out of whack.. If ANYONE has any suggestions I would LOVE them! Thank you in advance for any help!! :)

I have a sony sxrd 50" that had blown a lamp. I replaced the lamp and am getting a blinking green light that turns to red and blinks 3 times over and over. I checked to make sure the lamp cover was making contact with the micro switch. It still does the same fault. Any suggestions?

My Sony KD-XBR960 when power is off will blink 6 times, stop and continue 6 times, etc. When I power it on, it blinks around 15 times then shuts off. If I pull the plug from the wall for about a week, sometimes two, plug it back in, it works. But then when I turn off the set, it's starts the 6 blinking again when sets not on and I can't get it to power up again. I purchased the TV in 2005. Thanks for any assistance you have in advance.

sony 42"Grand Wega. Powers on, screen doesnt come on. Goes directly to stand bye blinks for 30 sec. Then switches to lamp then that blinks continously. Screen remains black the whole time. The ligts are flashing red.

Thanks for the info on the Standby Blink Codes! I have a Sony KDL-46V25L1 that has the Standby indicator blinking eight times after I attempt to turn the unit on. After pressing the power button on the remote, the green power indicator turns on, I hear a relay (?) click a few times (once was normal), then the power indicator turn off and the standby indicator blinks eight times, pauses and repeats. The is no display. The night before it died we experienced some loud pops (audio) as the cable was going in and out so I am wondering if it is indeed an audio problem. Another TV on a different cable box but on the same channel did not have the audio pops. Then again, could be a power problem too.

I saw a previous post regarding checking the power and will do that once I get it off of the wall and the back removed. I am comfortable doing the repair once I determine the problem.

BTW - the service manual, now in the download area, has some Power LED blink codes on page 11, you may want to update the first page.

Any additional thoughts and comments are welcome.

Thanks again for posting the Standby Blink Codes.

Looks like the blink code definitions are going to vary from one device to another.  Eight blinks on the KDL-46V25L1 indicate the video processor board needs to be replaced.  I found a new one, installed it and all looks good.

Search Google for "KV-29FX30K, and it blinks 11 times" ,  Third result is a PDF for the Service Manual.  Quick View shows 11 blinks is a Jungle controller 8 volts error.
