It may be a failure of the transistor that drives the flyback which would be much cheaper, easier, to source and replace. You really need at least a multimeter to check the transistor; checking the flyback requires a different instrument not commonly found at home. The precautions previously mentioned apply since the HV circuit may not be at fault meaning there could well be high voltage at the described terminal.

Sounds like the flyback,to replace it is very dangerous, if you not fimilar with high voltage 20 to 30,000 volts, it can kill you, be careful. you have to make sure the tv is unpluged from outlet,use a voltage probe or rubber insulated flathead screw driver made with wire and allagator clips. carefuly ground one end of clip to the shield or strap or a good ground from tv. run it under the cap on the picture tubeto discharge it,then turn cap counter clockwise to pull cap off. then turn the board upside down , use a solder ****** and solder iron to remove the flyback. get the # off the flyback,oder orignal or sub.then resolder.

What does a orange not blinking indcator light mean?

For your TV the power light will be red when the TV is turned off using the power button on the top of the TV. Press the power button on top of the TV if that does not work then try turning the power off at the power switch on the bottom of the TV then turn it back on after a minute ior so and see if you can turn it on using the power button.

TV turns itself off, then on automaticlly

The fan should run for a few minutes after shut off to cool the lamp down.

If I read and understand correctly somewhere in the cycle you are getting 5 red blinks? that is an error code........

Either you or I can Google the model number of the set with 5 blinks.....or visit the Sony site to see what it means.....

Ilo LCT32HA32 tv wont turn on, no red standby light

It could be the power or main board that is giving issues...if your able pull the back off and look for a pin on connector marked PSON or PON...that is line that tells the power board to come out of sleeping and go to work, you should see a change in the voltage when the on button is pushed, if you do then the main is doing its work and its the main if you don't see a voltage change then chances are its the power board

Red blinking light when tv is turned off

You can't fix it. There is a bad board in this set; either the main board or the power supply board. You'll have to call a professional.
