Hi, there are numerous flashing codes for these sets so I included a web page dedicated to the Sony flashing light and you can look the forum over and try and pinpoint the number of flashes and the related causes. I also included the cuase for the 6 blinks and this can be fixed if this is the only issue.
Usually, the problem resulting in 6 blinks, pause, 6 blinks, etc. is a defective thermal "fuse", which is actually a bimetalic temperature switch. You may find the "KDF55WF655 6 blinks/KDF42WE655, KDF50WE655, KDF55WF655, KDF55XS955, KDF60WF655, KDF60XS955" information package of value. See the "Frequently Asked Question for Sony Products" forum "Television Troubleshooting Infromation Packages" thread for more information.
Once you get to this site request the troubleshooting package. It has step by step on how to replace the thermal fuse and where to get the parts.
I believe this fuse is right next to the light housing

Red flashing light

  1. Five blinks - AKB circuit (automatic kine bias), the timer/standby indicator blinks for about 30 seconds then goes to the self-diagnosis function. Something is wrong with the video. Check video out, Q705, 732, 761 and other components on the C board, also check Q218, 219, 220 on the A board. In addition, unit could be in IK blanking, try turning up screen slightly.

50PF9631D won't turn on... red light flashing/blinking 6 times

Your TV main board is damaged and you need a new one. You can order one on ebay and fix it yourself. Make sure you have the TV model/serial number on the back label of the TV to have the right part when ordering.

The TV will not turn on. When the switch at the lower left corner is pressed the light in the switch flashs green for about 4 seconds as the TV seems to go through a start up procedure. Then the light...

The red flashing light is the service code. My guess is the power supply is bad now, but it could be something else. If the TV is under warranty, take it in and get if fixed. If it is not, then you may try to check the power supply first. Count the flashes of the red light and check online for the issues when this model flashes, 4 times or 6 times... or 9 times, etc.

Good luck!
