Randomly turns itself off, with self diagnostic light flashing 6 times. Won't restart most times but will sometimes after turning power source off for 10 minutes or more. Repairmen have been out twice (11 months ago and 1 month ago) and replaced a thermal switch (?) but tv is still turning itself off with same number of flashes. I'm not confident they know what they are doing, your advice would be appreciated.
-   I have the same problem, my television just randomly turned off then stand-by light flashing six times. It wont even turn on. I've only had it for just over a year. The life for this tv is slack, I have had it hooked into a surge gaurd since buying it and Im a busy person so had only used it in moderation. I also have a User guide for this television, it states a troubleshooting part in the contents and funnily enough it is not even printed in my manual. Its also really weird that I cant find a solution on the Internet or even find out what it means when it does this. HELP PLEASE!!! -   bgurlkazz

-   I went to turn on my Sony tv and I did not get a sound or picture, then the standby light came on and flashed 9 times and nothing. I contacted Sony customer care and the rep informed me to turn the unit off then power it back on. After doing so, the unit"s standby light continued to flash 9 times continously. The rep then gave me the contact number for a repair guy in my area, he informed me that is could cost anywhere from $300-$500 dollars. I have searched the web looking for solutions and obviously SOny tv's have a history of doing this, so I dont understand why the SOny rep could not inform me of whats going on. Unbelievable..... never again, I will stay away from a SOny television next time-   Shug78

-   I have a Toshiba 57HC85 57 in. HDTV Television. It is approximately 2 years old. Originally the picture would turn to a green color. Now the TV is shutting itself off and the power light will flash. To turn the TV back on I have to pull the power plug and plug it back in. Then after a short time it will shut off again.-   rmerrell

I have a Phillips 46PP9302 Rear Projection HDTV. Last night, it appaeared that the blue gunbriefly went out and the set lost convergence on the red and green. Then it just shut off. I waited a couple minutes and attempted to fire it back up. The power light came on, but there was never any picture, and then it shuts of after about a minute. I tried leaving unplugged overnight, and then trying again int he morning, but its the same. Any ideas? Should I even bother calling for a repair or should I just go after one of these LCD deals?

My Sony Grand Wega kf50we610 takes like 10 times to try to power on before it actually turns on and works. What could the problem be? It's not the lamp because that is replaced. It will click like it wants to turn on but goes back to blinking red. It will finally turn on after many tries but I'm sure it won't be long before that doesn't work either. :( Any help would be appreciated.
my phillips 32pw9616c tv keeps turning itself off after my little boy had been playing with it for a while. it needs turning off from mains to rectify this fault as the red light keeps flashing and nothing else seems to help.
