There has been quite a lot of knowledge gathered here, and I thought it might be helpful to list some of the good resources available in one place for your convenience.

I have a Sony color rear video projector Mod. # KPD65WS550 purchased in 2004. When I turn the set on, the sound is there but no picture. After about 20 seconds, the sound goes dead and the set turns off. The front panel light bleaks 10 times and then pauses and then bleaks 10 times and pauses. I need to know what the problem is and the approximate cost to repair

Hi mate..

Sony TV has self fault diagnosing system, this light shows error code..its for your information.

This flashing lights meant by(10 times) fault in power supply.

Normally there is two convergence ic normally start with STK is faulty

1) how to check this IC faulty or not.

There is a dual supply for this section that comes from power supply, commonly -+18 to 20 open this from this section and switch ON the TV . If you can see the picture without convergence replace this IC(picture lines may have curves).
If you need any more explanation please reply me feel free ..Have a lovely happy new year.
Thanks
