Sony kf-60w610 What do the blinking led codes mean on a sony kf-60w610 tv set? Esp. 6 blinks? Also, when I put the set in the service menu, it shows "Error +B oup 1" What does this mean, apart from something to do with maybe the B+ supply?

These blinks [flashes] are fault indication (Error Codes). From the number of blinks occur at one time switch ON, you can get an idea about the faulty circuit section inside it. This will make repair easy. These are called blinking codes. Make sure about the exact number of blinking of the standby/power LED, by switching On & OFF the set, for at least two times. Count it carefully. If you wish to get some details, check the site linked here. It has details about blinking codes, and fault locating procedure, to many popular brand TVs and other devices. http://electronicshelponline.blogspot.com/

The fan should run for a few minutes after shut off to cool the lamp down.

If I read and understand correctly somewhere in the cycle you are getting 5 red blinks? that is an error code........

Either you or I can Google the model number of the set with 5 blinks.....or visit the Sony site to see what it means.....

A 6 blink error code on this model is letting you know that your G1 board is not putting out your +17 volt supply. You can inspect that circuit if you are experianced, or just swap out the board.

Your set needs two regulator ICs replaced and a capacitor . I recommend taking it to a sony authorized servicer.

Hi,
4 times blink shows Temp Error and requires temperature sensor replacement in Sony KF-50WE610 TV

3 times means Lamp and 6 means you have lost a voltage. You may have a thermal fuse blown.
This set has a common trouble with overheating caused by the drum fan located on top of the lamp housing clogged up with dust. When the lamp is getting old it runs hotter and that combined with the fan being clogged the thermal fuse blows. You must replace the lamp and thermal fuse. You must also clean out or replace the lamp fan. This drum type fan should be cleaned out every year or two depending on the environment.

Hey there,
I've had my Sony KF-50WE610 for approx. 4years now and have just experienced the prob you described (though I didn't think to count the number of red blinks). I called Sony TV technical support (888-772-7669, #3 for TV/digital cameras, #1 for TV, then #1 again I think). They said that if the power/standby light blinks 5x, that means there's something wrong with the lamp driver and service will be required. Needless to say, I better go home and count my red blinks! Good luck, I hope this helps a bit. Have a happy and safe holiday!

It sounds like a bad lamp. Replae the lamp firts, but there is a chance you have a bad lamp driver also.
