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

Oh, yea - another misaligned projection TV. All rear projection TV's seem to eventually get this disease.
Fix: perform a "convergence," which will converge all 3 color projectors to the same point.

Ur convergence is dead,U now how to solders?Tries Tv repair World.com,Tvrepairkits.com.

Could be a convergence adjustment from your remote under MENU. (This can be done by you)
Could be a problem in the convergence circuitry. (This can be done a TV tech only)

Five blinks is a video abnormality detection and I am all too familiar with this repair... One or more of the crt's in this unit has a bad set or failing guns in it... You can have a local tech bring out a crt tester and rejuvenate the tube for a temporary stay but it will eventually fail for good and in a short period of time it will be one or the other - - VERY expensive to repair or off to the dump...
Please don't kill the messenger!

This is your Picture tubes getting very weak.( low in emission ) You have three in there and I guarantee they are no longer available so I would start thinking about investing in a new set, but use that one until you can't stand it anymore.

The led blinking six times indicates a loss of your Horizontal deflection. You can go here for detailed debug info: http://www.scribd.com/search?cx=007890693382555206581%3A7fgc6et2hmk&cof=FORID%3A10&ie=UTF-8&c=all&q=SONY+KP53-XBR200&sa=Search#888

maybe a dvd setting

try an other device in the inputs to verify its not the dvd

if you get a good picture through cable input then

component inputs (should be good)?

5 blinks means AKB detected. Try turning down all 3 screen adjustments slightly.

My tv too had a blue screen problem. Then it started to shut down after staying on for less than a minute. I thought that I would with a huge repair bill but I followed the directions at this link: http://www.somelifeblog.com/2007/06/sony-projection-tv-red-line-repair.html and now my tv works perfectly.

My Sony KP-53XBR200 will not display any video (even from the tuner) except the internal display until it sees a video input on one of the video jacks on the back after a power hit.

I solved this by putting a video cable from Monitor out to Video 4 in (unused for other video). Voilla! Instant video on. This may not be your issue, but it fixed my set!
