Sony kp-51ws500...i turn it on and get a blue screen..can hear audio..but the standby/power light flashes then turns off.. count 8 flashes please help..thanks

Sounds like from your description the Blue CRT ( picture tube ) is shorted. I believe they are no linger available. If in doubt, I would call a service company to verify this.

Sony KP-51WS500 projection tv. Screen is green with curved lines

The green picture tube has an internal short. Happened a lot with that model. The tubes are no longer availible. But a reputable company called Video Display will rebuild the tube completely. But the tube must be pulled and shipped to them. Most repair shops would charge around $400 to $500 for the complete job.

Sony KP-51WS500 will not turn on

I believe the problem is either in the G board ( power supply) or the D Board ( high voltage) as the 3 blinks indicate the G board, and 7 indicates the D board and 6 indicates the +5 line a and b boards. So with that many codes its most likely the G board (power supply) You can get a new replacement G board at the following link which comes with free tech support to help you plug the baord in which is very easy. Its listed under the Sony parts category and its the A-1316-566-A sony G board, Here is the link.

Sony KP-51WS500 Blinks/Flashes 6 Times

nspect the bottom of these boards for cold solder joints with a magnifier & resolder suspect pins, also check the capacitors on the board, if they are little silver smd type look for yellowish liquid to be present around one or several of them, you need to replace, either of the above could be your solution.
