Continous blinks of standby light to Sony TVs denotes a fault with its IIC bus line. Might be a short. Visit this site for more details. Blinking codes to many brand TVs are described in detail. Pull up older posts.

The HOT transistor is shutting it down. (horizontal output transistor)
it cost about 8.00 for the parts and 100 for the labor.

you will require help from a tech.

SOURCE: SONY KV32F-Q86U BLINKING 16 TIMES

The problem, on the AE6B chassis at least, is usually an MCZ3001DB chip. There are three in the average Sony TV, one on the so-called A-Board and 2 on the D-Board. Usually the problem is caused by a faulty one on the D-Board near the two large switching FET's. In this case, replacing this will fix the problem.

SOURCE: Sony Vega Service Codes

KV-32HS510 and KV-27HS420, seven times blink error code shows problem in Horizontal deflection circuit.

There are many possibilities like dry solder joints, weak capacitors, Horizontal transistor short or flyback transformer fried etc.

If you have little experience of TV repair and good solder skills and have necessary tools to test / check defective parts, then you can make it. you also need to have related service manual to see board location, schematics and part numbers.

Sony TV set, KV20FS120 BA6 chassis: light blinks, set isn't coming on. Why?

Sony sets like this have a built-in self-diagnostic function.
The blinks of the Standby LED are the self-diagnostic codes.
There may be more than one error. The blinks indicate only the first error.

Unlug the set. Wait 30 seconds.
Prepare to count the number of times the Standby LED blinks.
Plug the set back in. Count the blinks.

2 blinks
  • Diagnostic Item Description: +B overcurrent (OCP)
  • Probable cause:
    • H.OUT (Q506) is shorted. (A Board) (20"/21" models only)
    • RGB Amp (IC1751) is shorted. (CV Board)
  • Detected Symptoms:
    • Power does not come on.
    • Load on power line is shorted.
4 blinks
  • Diagnostic Item Description: I-Prot
  • Probable cause:
    • +13V is not supplied. (A Board)
    • IC545 is faulty. (A Board)
  • Detected Symptoms:
    • Has entered standby state after horizontal raster.
    • Vertical deflection pulse is stopped.
    • Power line is shorted or power supply is stopped
5 Blinks
  • Diagnostic Item Description: IK (AKB)
  • Probable cause:
    • Video OUT (IC545) is faulty. (A Board)
    • IC001 is faulty. (A Board)
    • Screen (G2) is improperly adjusted.
  • Detected Symptoms:
    • No raster is generated.
    • CRT Cathode current detection reference pulse output is small.

The above may be of little help. Your best bet is to download the service manual for the KV20FS120.

Tv turns off (both video and sound) after running for 20 sec and then turns on after 20 sec. This pattern continues over and over. None of the lights are blinking. Lamp is less than 2 yrs old and is...

Hi,
TV will show Lamp Light warning if lamp got broken or dead.
Symptoms of TV shows lamp is weak and will be replaced. Weak lamp consume more current than allowed ratings and causing activation of protection circuit that shuts off TV and TV turns on again itself, that is why no blinking red light.
Please replace lamp in your Sony KDF-E55A20 TV, lamp replacement procedure is easy and written in user manual, click Sony Support to download user manual copy, if required.
Always buy Sony original lamp for TV safety, Sony original lamp is available in Sony Accessories Store for $200 with following part number..
A1085447A... LAMP BLOCK ASSY XL-2200U
Hope this info will help you.
Thanks.

Sony - Projector TV won't turn

Sony TV;s will give a service code, count the blinks, eg; 2-6, light will blink X amount of times, hesitate & blink again so many times. Count and report back but, I would recomend to unplug the TV's power cord, to reset the TV's system. Unplug for at least 3 minutes. I hope this was helpful.

TV Sony KV-29F1E turn-on failure, red standby LED flashes (starts after 10-20 attempts)

When the set ends up flashing the LED, it should be a repeatable count. Can you please report that count here? Also, since the set eventually works, I'd suspect a bad connection or a part that has changed value over time. The blink code will help to narrow down the offending circuit.
