Question about Sony KDF-E55A20 55 in. LCD Television

Power button When we turn on the power button it blinks green and then throws a trouble code the power button blinks 6 times red and doesnt power on and continues to blink 6 times skips a second or 2 then blinks 6 times and so on. What is the blinking 6 times mean because supposedly 3 times means the bulb is shot.

Anonymous Dec 10, 2007

Gentlemen: Thanks for all the advice. I replaced my thermal fuse and my tv is working fine. There is one thing that was not made clear. First the fuse sets in a holder directly under the bulb. there are 2 models for this fuse. the one I had was a metal case being held down by 2 screws--this will be the toughest part. However, if you get the other type fuse which has a small black head like an RTD. then leave the other one in and just slip this one under it. You will have to remove the fan, and the fan housing, then you will see the fuse. I bought 3 of these fuses from parts.com for 30.50 including tax and shipping. So now I have the spare bulb and spare fuses.

Remember, Sony is no help, they will not even sale you a schematic. they want you to send it to the shop. 200 to 400 bucks for a $5.60 fuse.

Thanks guys.

This is a very simply fix. Your problem is you have a bad thermal fuse. This fuse can be found in the Lamp housing. You need to take the back off in order to fix this problem. Replacing the thermal is not hard, but you need to be a little handy. Part number 1-910-023-93 Average cost $9.00

Sorry, I have to say it. If the bulb (LED) is shot it would have to be zero flashes :-) It's my weird sense of humour. After that I hope you'll forgive me and someone can give you some real help.

These blinks [flashes] are fault indication (Error Codes). From the number of blinks occur at one time switch ON, you can get an idea about the faulty circuit section inside it. This will make repair easy. These are called blinking codes. Make sure about the exact number of blinking of the standby/power LED, by switching On & OFF the set, for at least two times. Count it carefully. If you wish to get some details, check the site linked here. It has details about blinking codes, and fault locating procedure, to many popular brand TVs and other devices.

If you turn it on and the, Power/Standby green light blinks slow 6 times; then it becomes a red fast blink 6 times, pause, then continues to blink red fast 6 times, again and again. this means when it's blinking 6 times is indication of electrical circuitry malfunction. The Television will need service.

I HAVE THE SONY GRAND WEGA MODEL# KF-50WE620 WHEN I HIT THE POWER BUTTON IT BLINKS GREEN 6 TIMES THEN RED 6 TIMES AND WILL CONTINUE TO BLINK RED 6 TIMES OVER AND OVER

A 6 blink error code on this model is letting you know that your G1 board is not putting out your +17 volt supply. You can inspect that circuit if you are experianced, or just swap out the board.
