Push Power Protector (by 7 users)

posted by Joe Herman on Jan 17, 2008


I get a "Push Power Protector" flashing on my display. I cannot use the remote to turn on the system. I shut off the power to the system and turned it back on, and still the same thing. What should I do?

push power protector

Comment by Guest, posted on Apr 14, 2008

OK- I guess I should have done more trouble shooting before I posted my message because I found the problem.   In the process getting my TV ready for the wall (sliding it around) I set the base of the TV on the wire that connects the center surround sound speaker, which wore thru the plastic coating on the wire and caused a "short".  So far... problem solved. I found the wire by disconnecting all of the wires and re-connected them one at a time while pushing the power button each time. This narrowed it down to the correct wire.  Might be worth trying to see if there is a problem with one of the wires. Good luck!

Mine was working just fine, then one day it started doing this same thing.  I turned it off and on... still no change, it just keeps flashing "push power protector".  Later that day it started working.  The next day it was flashing again.  Anyone have any tips?

I had the same. It was caused by the speaking wire ends touching the unit. I was just setting it up and had not fully connected everything. They were just loose. In general i think the message is trying to say check the power or check all your cables for short circuts.

Hi I had the same problem and when I contacted the Sony service centre they told me to replace the entire circuit board which will cost 6000+taxes and service charge which comes around 7500Rs.But When I contacted the Sony showroom they suggested me to go for a new Sony DVD home theatre which cost only 12990Rs. I have googled this problem but it seems a commom problem with all Sony DVD home theatres which they dont have proper solution to rectify this and I conclude this as a manufacturing defect in their design.Planning to approach Consumer Court to avail for damage.For any queries or help please contact me in bala_sandpiper@yahoo.com or bala362@rediffmail.com
