Sony is now extending the warranty on the LCD display and will fix the problem for free through September 30, 2012. See: http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/news-item.pl?news_id=378&mdl=KDL46XBR4 Call their customer service number and they will give you a case number. Then call one of their authorized service centers and they will fix it free, in home.

That error says backlight failure. It has to be troubleshooted to find out why.

That is almost always an indication of main-board failure on these Bravia LCD's. Unfortunately this is a very difficult repair, and unless you are an electrician I would not recommend attempting it. You will need to contact a local TV repair person in your area. If you think it may still be under warranty please contact the manufacturer to file an RMA. If you happened to purchase the TV with a major credit card (not a debit card) there is a good chance it may still be under the free extended warranty most credit cards place on electronics. Please contact your credit card company to inquire if they do this, and they will be able to file the claim and get you a refund for the TV.

Let me know if you want me to try and track down the part for you, but please make sure you think you are capable of doing the repair.

Thanks
Tim
