My Sony Wega KDP-51WS550 Turn it on, has audio but no picture then turns itself off shortly after. The timer/standby light blinks 5 times. This happened a while back and we just unplugged it and didn't use it for a while. Before we moved we plugged it in and turned it on again and it worked, now it's doing the turn off thing again. Any ideas as to the problem?

Appears to be an issue with the power supply - that is why unit shuts down to protect itself.

Service Manual of KDP-57WS655 says if TV standby light blinks 9 times then problem is Zero Corssing Detector and you need to replace diodes, D6116 or D6301 which are open on G Board.

Hello,

The problem is from the lamp of the television, it is about to develop a fault that is why the picture goes off but you have sound.

The 10 blinks you see on the led is a symbol that the television is having a fault that needs to be checked.

The solution is for you to open up the television and locate the lamp and replace it with a new one, once you replace the lamp, the television will be in good condition once again.

Take care and good luck

Hi Kimber,
The main reasons of your problem is the bulb which is already faulty to its end. The unit will automatically shuts off when it sense a bulb failure. But before you replace the bulb I would advice you to work first on itspower supply. Look for open fuse/fusible resistor and spot some bad solder joints. This will do the same symptoms like what it showing now. If you don't have necessary tools and test instruments, and can't do the job yourself, I would advice you to look for a professional to troubleshoot the problem. Don't attempt to work in the power supply if you don't know the safety precaution of handling it, there some stored electricity enough to hurt you with a little mistake only.

Hope I helped you.
Have a nice day!

Sony TV

hello AKB circuit (automatic kine bias), the timer/standby indicator blinks for about 30 seconds then goes to the self-diagnosis function. Something is wrong with the video. Check video out, Q705, 732, 761 and other components on the C board, also check Q218, 219, 220 on the A board. In addition, unit could be in IK blanking, try turning up screen slightly

Hi, 5 times blink of standby light shows that TV needs White Balance adjustment. No need to dump it, adjustment is also not so difficult. Let me know if you want to give it a try to guide you.
