surge protectors only work in one direction--from the power supply to the machine and are there to dampen a sudden over voltage surge in power supply-- lighting strike or power surge after grid failure or outage I am thinking that the unit you keep switching on is an earth leakage unit or circuit breaker that is in the system to prevent electrical shocks from bad insulation or low performing components if that is the case you have a potential short in the unit and should have the machine checked out at an appliance shop

Lamp/Bulb A1601-753A (XL-2000U) . http://www.shopjimmy.com/dlplamps?tv_brands_select=Sony&tv_models=Sony+KF-60XBR800

red light usally means bulb is no good, not in properly, or is overheating. if you turn it on and it goes off in short time and starts blinking red then its the bulb for sure. they get hot then kick out and blink..

Are you sitting on the remote control by any chance?

Hey joseph, actually replacing the optical Block is not necessary at all, all you need to do is get into the "Service Mode" of the Tv and change a few setting around, did it a few weeks ago and now my TV looks perfect, no reason to waster $1200 as sony is trying to get over on all us consumers.

Good day!!!6 blinks its the clear indication that you have bad power supply board..That problem is usually cause of faulty capacitors on the power supply board..Just follow this instruction to fix your TV..1. Open the back cover of your TV.2. Look at the power supply board..Its normally connected to the power cord..3. After that,,try to look at the actual image of capacitors if it is bulged on the top so that you can easily determine the bad capacitors..4. After that,,try to replaced the bad capacitors using soldering iron and soldering lead..replaced the capacitors only with the same type ratings and value..5. Some of the capacitors not bulged so its better if have a capacitance meter

I'm sorry that the TV is not displaying red color. Please follow the troubleshooting steps and check the operation:

1. Please make sure that the connections are secure and proper.
2. Try connecting a different video source like DVD player or VCR and check the operation. If it works with another device, the issue might be with the input device currently.
3. Also try connecting the device to a different port in the TV if no other devices are available.
4. If the issue persists, try with a different cable.
5. Perform a power resetting and check the operation. To perform the power resetting, unplug the TV from wall outlet for more than 2 minutes and then reconnect it.
6. If the issue persists, please change the Lamp of the TV to resolve the issue. XL2400 is the replacement Lamp for the TV. Please refer page # 86 of the Instruction Manual of the TV to get the instructions to change the Lamp. I'm providing the link to download the Instruction Manual for your reference. Click here to download the Manual.

Thanks for understanding. Please let me know if you require any clarifications.

Count the flashes of the standby light and the gap between the flashes as the tv is giving you the exact error code for the fault this way. Then check in the handbook and sony forums for the solution. Personally I have found ALL sony products to be like a spoilt rich kid, replace the parts with genuine sony, if you dont it mis-behaves itself in ways never seen before. Good luck.
