Sony KV36XBR200




By gunterf on Oct 22, 2007

" "

36" TV is 8 years old, has been working great, never a problem or glitch. Now TV turns on, picture comes on then goes blank for a split second, then goes blank again. Picture goes on/off, audio is never an issue, doesn't matter which input I use. I did notice that the tube has a much more of a greenish tint to it without any video inputs. Any help / advise is greatly appreciated. Thanks

-   Mine is doing the exact same thing!!! Only mine has a reddish hue when it's on. Screen blinks off almost every 30 seconds or so! Mine was manufactured in January 1999, what a bummer! I don't think I got enough use out of the set for the money spent. Really dissapointed in Sony, the
TV was great while it was working...-   khamlin

I have noticed it will blink less at a MUCH darker picture setting, like putting the picture to it's lowest setting and the brightness to it's lowest setting and the TV will recover after awhile and take longer to start blinking again once you brighten back up. It still comes back. and it's a growing degree of green hue that increasingly tints the screen til BLINKing commences. Basketball March Madness was truly that!!!!!!!!-   Guest

-   Same problem here. We purchased the TV new about 8 years a go, and sense it was soooo big and heavy, we have never moved it. Now its blinking even after its been powered up for a long time.-   maxarbo

-   I have the sony KV-35s26 35" TV. The Tv standby blinks for about 10-15 seconds and the the Tv comes on. Once the tv is on it blinks about every two seconds, sometimes it will stop for a while then it will start randomly blinking again. Can you help me find out what the problem is?-   savedbygrace

Same as above. 36" Sony, Vega/Trinitron, mfr. Dec. 99, purchased in 2000. Intermittant blinking, sound is unaffected. Blinks more when TV is first powered up, and then seems to settle down. After that it's completely random. It may go a few hours without blinking, and then act up again, sometimes only a few minutes. Put a temporary set in its place and it works fine. If it makes a difference, the channel # is always displayed after it blinks out.

Having the same problem. Was working fine, then recently picture would blink on and off/audio not a problem. Now, the TV constantly blinks on an off, doesn't matter if its been on for days or hours. I don't like the idea of replacing this huge TV (Its really really heavy), especially after only 9 years of use. I feel I didn't get my fair share of use, after only 9 years.
