Televisions and Projectors
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... 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 times (too many to remember) and to my surprize it started working fine again!!!... hope it doesn't act up again =)
Soooo guess what??? It's doing it again!... i looked and looked for 11 blink code, and can't find an answear (I'm not crazzy, i counted 11 many times) is there anything i should do or check before calling a tech?
Any info will be a bless!!!

Hi Larry,the model number is KV-X2101D. It does not blink the self diagnosis blinking code at all.The red light only blinks once each time I press any button on the TV.

There is no such thing as a "channel" button. There simply isnt. It's not on my remote, and I've never seen it on a remote before. I'm getting a 2 blink message, and while this site helped me understand that there's a problem, it doesn't tell me how to fix it. So, basically, completely useless website. Did you get a service manual yet????You will need that to see how the set comes apart or the service menu procedure

Hello Larry!
it's me again with the 11 blinking code (on the Sony KDL-40S3000, bought in the USA), any word on that?... the TV started working again, but I'm afraid it would do the same thing soon (since it has done it before a couple of times)
for what i have read it's based on the WAX3 frame... don't know if that helps!!!
Thank you for your help,
Cesar

I have a service manual for my kv-36xbr800. The set blinks three times and then goes to stand by. A blog I looked at said IC6505 is bad. On the Tech lore it also gave T603 and r672. Neither of these references show up in the component listing. Any one have any idea which these refer to?

I did not find "upload" Is that suppose to read "create a download". If so, I know where my manual is filed, but I do not know how to send it to you.

I have a Sony Grand Wega rear projection, model KDF-55WF655 purchased in the U.S.A in 2005. It has served me well, however lately it has been giving a black screen and the standby light has been blinking 37 times. I have looked at many posts and no one has complained of that many blinks. Any available help would be greatly appreciated
