Display 'video 1' stays on all the time

Our TV is a rear projection Sony, purchased in 1990 or 1991. It still has a beautiful picture. the problem is that the display 'Video 1' in the upper right hand side of the screen is permanently on. It is possible to use the remote to turn it off briefly, but it always returns. Can you tell us how to fix it? Thanks VM

There is a "Display" button on your Sony remote that turns the display ( Video 1,2,3 etc) off and on , you probably hit it by accident like I did.

Hi,
Press any channel button on tv remote to switch its input source as TV to watch tv channels.
As you said, screen shows Video-1 display that means tv is set on input-1 that need to be changed, press channel button on remote or tv front to shift it on tv channels mode.
Let me know if you have additional question.
Thanks.

Kp-53xbr200 SONY video shuts off but sound stays on

Sounds like a bad solder connection. When you lose video, does the on screen display still work, and if so how about your picture in picture? If no OSD or PIP works then you may be loosing your High Voltage to the picture tubes. Some circuit board assemblies are no longer available from Sony for this model so you may be out of luck if the problem is more than a bad connection.
