TV LED Flashes then TV shuts itself off

TV shuts itself off. TV will be on for an undertermined time and Red LED power light on front will flash then TV turns off. TV will turn back on either by remote or power button on set and the majority of the time will continue to shut itself off immediately after being turned on. If TV is left off for a long time TV will stay on for about an hour then start shutting itself off again. I have a feeling that it is a chip problem and needs replacing. The TV has been a good workhorse and in all other respects a worthwhile purchase.

Hi Daniel,

Please check if you can access the "error code operational check" to narrow down where the fault came from.
How to enter to error code operational check.
Note : The TV must be in shutdown and not have been switched off. When the TV is switched off, the error code automatically resets to 12 (no error).
Press the buttons on the front panel "Input/Device" and "Menu" at the same time and hold it for 5 sec, activate the error code mode. The LED light will flashes denoting a two digit error code.
Example : if the error code is 22, the led will flash two times pause and then flash two times and will repeat the error code for five times.

If you can't access the error code operational check , please let me know the exact pattern of the flashes of the led light and its color. Check if it will continually flashes green to give you the caused of the symptoms and best solution.

Good luck and take care.

Sony TV LED & Blinking Codes - What Does It Mean When Standby/Timer Light Flashes Sony has provided a "self-diagnosis function" with your TV, that in the case of abnormalities or problems the LED or red blinking light on the Timer/Standby indicator flashes a number of times to indicate the issue.
when there is trouble with your Sony Television set -- it indicates the issue in either the diagnostic mode, or even more commonly by flashing a series of LED blinks or flashes on the front of your television. Each set or frequency of the blinks indicates a very specific problem with the television itself.
Sorry but unless you may be able to repair the television set yourself , please call a local repair shop to the have a repairman sent out,,
