Go to Encompass Parts Distribution they will List Cost of Light Engine 1-800-638-3328 Staring Price 650.00 and up.

I think you have a power fault. Probably a short circuit on one of the boards because two flashes of the power lamp is a power over current problem.
Hope this helps.

4 blinks is fan error. Just clean the fans near lamp compartment by a vacuum cleaner and check the fan connectors if they are attached securely.

This is a issue with your optical eng. Sony knows that they are bad, call sony and they should atleast comp you the part

this is the error for a stoped fan... feel to check to see if fan is blowing. it might be clogged. the fan might have failed. MY motto when it comes to motors is "anything that moves eventally stops someday" cooling fans are relatively inexpensive and easy to replace.

Hi,
Red led blinks 4 times is an error code that shows that fan is not running in tv, check fans connections and make sure all are plugged properly.
Thanks.

Sorry but you have Bad Light Engine again!!

4 times blink is a fan error. I suggest to use a vacuum is better than using a Long screw driver when cleaning those fans. Screw driver can damage the fan..

Hello,
You need to check the output voltages of the power supply to see which one goes off. It may be due to short circuits some where,but otherwise Your power supply board is dead, u know basic electronics' and soldering? Most of the times, the power supply board just have dead leakages gases capacitors.These capacitors always bulges up on it top,or puff up on it top.Replaced these gases leakages capacitors will get your TV power stable,and work again.Or tries websites like Shopjimmy.com,Ebay.com to buy a whole refurbish power supply board for the replacement.

Hope this help in solving the problem, Take care.....

You might have a bad bulb. I have a question for you. I have a Haier plasma . Im trying to find a bulb for mine. here is mt email [email protected].

I had a similar problem with my 42 in Philips LCD HDTV. Here was the problem. My Power Supply Board had several bad capacitors. I opened my TV (warranty was expired ofcourse) and found four bulged capacitors on the PSB. Many major electronics companiesPhilips/Magnavox, Sony, Panasonic, and others were sold capacitors that failedin 2-5 years instead of 10-20. Thecapacitors fail prematurely due to a lack of preservatives. Unfortunately, they were installed in allsorts of devices and cause a wide range of failure problems. Here are some options for you. 1. Have it fixed by a professional $$$$$$$??????? (Is itunder warranty?) Remember, TVs CONTAINHIGH VOLTAGE AND CAN KILL YOU! Do this at your own risk. 2. Open your TV and find PSB. (The board that the power cordplugs into) Check for faulty caps. If you find some (bulged or leaking) bad capsreplace the entire board. The entireboard costs around $250 right now because they are in high demand right now.They can be found at tv-part.com but supplies are limited. I would definitely shop around though. 3. Remove and then replace individual faulty caps. This takes some soldering skill. Caps are inexpensive and if you can take care of it yourselfit will save you hundreds. This may be your problem. If you determine that it might be. I have a Tip/How TO tutorialon this site that may also help. Itgives step by step instructions for replacing caps on PSB #715t2432-2. If this isyour board you are in luck. Here is theLink: Fixingthe Philips Turns/shuts off on its own problem. I'm working on uploading pictures to helpguide people though the process as well. Let me know if I can do anything to help. Hope this helps and if it does please rate itaccordingly. Good luck.Kaufman605

First, if you have the manual, open it to troubleshooting, if you don't have it; www.sonystyle.com then click on support, then manuals. you can download it for free. The manual will decipher the flashes for you to narrow down your possibilities. The three main problems in the Sony lineup are the optical block, the bulb, and the fan. The fan is the only real obvious one that can be fixed quickly. When you turn on the TV, the fan should click on ( may vary depending on your main setup from TV menu) However, if you have any compressed air (dust off) etc. The fan is on the rear of the set on the right lower 1/3rd (looking from behind set) Location is in the manual too. If the fan can't turn on, the TV will shut down. Also, go to this site for further help from "Sony"

Hi
Please check correctly how many times the power LED is flashing. There is no option for flashing four times.
Flashing 3 times- Lamp door or lamp is no securely attached
I have attached a diagram how to check it please follow the steps and you can get rid of this problem

Thanx

You need to post Your Make and Model# that is printed on back of TV.

CHeck the bulb it is pretty easy to swap out

Its time to replace lamp in tv.
DLP lamp has limited life span like 3000 working hours and after that it need to be replaced to get bright picture in tv.
Lamp replacement is easy and procedure would be written in user manual.
