Question about Sony Grand WEGA KDF-55XS955 55" Rear Projection HDTV
If the set is for sure a projection TV set and not a direct view LCD TV set, you may have dirt, dust or a water mark on the lens or mirrors on the ind=side of the TV set. I really do not see how water could have gotten inside the TV set though on the lens assembly. This set is pretty tight when it comes to ex poser. Except for the back of the TV set. If water would have gotten on any of the printed circuit boards and you did not plug the set in for a while, and I hope you did not, Then the problem may be unrelated and could be a light engine problem. The only thing you can do is to open the TV set and check out the optics on the set. Send me the exact model number and maybe I will have the service manual, or close to it, so you can disassemble the TV set correctly. That will start off right away of saving you 30 bucks! Good Luck

Yes I found out, as I should have looked, ME BAD!!:>(, This is for sure an LCD projection TV set. It turns out I do also have the exact Sony service manual for this TV set. If you would like to start out by saving 35 bucks, leave an e-mail address and i will send you a copy so you can see how this sucka comes apart. You will however need to go to pando.com and get a copy of their free download software so you will be able to open this service manual. it is a very large file, and my e-mail provider will not let me send such large files.
This way you will be able to clean all the optics inside the TV set yourself and save a ton of cash!

Thanks Techman. I did not open it for two days after whatever the problem would have been. It is possible with dust, as we have been remodeling and the entire house is filled with wood dust from the floors.
The exact model number is KDF-E55A20. And I am not sure whether it is a projection set or a direct view LCD set.
Any help you give me is MORE than appreciated.
Thanks, JD
