Question about Sony FD Trinitron KD-36XS955 36" TV

1998 Sony Trinitron 35" TV

I was watching TV last night and out of nowhere the tv just made a zzzzt and turned off. I cant turn it back on. Is the TV even worth having it looked at? or should I send it to the curb? Crappy to say that i actually spent $1600.00 back in the day on it. Thanks Jim

Hello Jrallen,

I've just plugged in the cable line to my '98 Sony 35" TV with the new indoor antenna (Philips). It comes with a 75/300 ohm Transformer...The instructions are vague to this lady on what to do with this little accessory. Can you help me? Thank you so much!!

Yes this set was top of the line back then as I repaired tons of them. These days its going to most likly cost you 250 to 300 bucks to repair this as it sounds like the flyback transformer and the horiz. transistor are bad, along with most likly a few dryed up capacitors. I would not invest anything into this set, but you are the owner and you have to ask yourself "do I want to invest in a set that your not sure what else will go bad?" Invest in a shiney new flat panel or a microdisplay set.

The Sony sets were well known for capacitor issues, the problem is on the power supply board where two or three capacitors will need to be changed, I recommend a tv technician for the job.

Hi. I dont recognise that model number. Take a look at the rear of set & see if there is a chassis number eg AE1. AE1A, AE1B, AE1C, AE2, AE2A, AE5, AE3B, BE2, BE2A,BE3, DE1, F1, FX, These are some of the common older chassis. You say led flashes does it flash 2, 3, 4, 5, times etc then pause then repeat ?

Television won't turn on

it is best you buy another set my friend it is not worth fixing the money you have for repairs and the cost for components put it together and you will get a good tv free of repair worries plus with warranty.if you get that set fix bam you take it home then about a week it is back in the work shop again.you will have to spend more money.a 10 year old set is not worth to have it repaired.replace it.good luck my friend.

Sony Trinitron TV will not turn on

First thing that comes to mind is that the horizontal driver transformer has bad solder connections on the primary and the secondary windings. Also a set this old could also have a defective regulator IC if you dont know wht m saying , b=est thing to do is find out how much an estimate is then go back to best buy and see what a new set cost cause man you got your moneys worth outa this one for sure!!!!! Good Luck

The past week the memory stick menu flickers or stays on for secs and now is on one half the time. If I change a channel or press the memory stick button, it will correct itself for a while and then return to the menu once again. I do not have a reset button on my remote, but I have unplugged the set overnight without benefit. I have never used a memory stick either. Any ideas?

I am having some problems with this Sony Wega KD-36SX955 36" tv. Sometimes it will turn on and sometimes it won`t. I had it on all day last Sunday and shut it off and the next day it would not turn on. It will make the usual clicking noises from the relays and the standby light blinks, but thats it. I checked other post on here and they say to replace the IC . I opened up the tv and found 3 IC in it. 2 that say SHINDENGEN MCZ3001DB B00446 those are on the left side and 1 on the right that says SHINDENGEN MCZ3001DB B04047 Which 1 do i change? Or do i change them all? Thanks, PEANUT
