Question about Sony KP-53HS10 TV

Sound, but no picture. Standby light blinking 5 times

Blighty Nov 07, 2007

KP53HS10 is 9 years old and has provided many pleasant hours of entertainment. A week ago a pinkyish hue came over the screen. The picture could be seen but gradually faded after time. The audio was Ok. Now the picture is completely gone and the screen is a pink/purple/dark red color. The standby diagnostic light flashes 5 times repeatedly. Again, audio is still good.

Would appreciate any assistance in diagnostics and repair. Sony claims they have never had any recorded similar failures in any of their tvs.??

It could be a cause of an overheat on some part of a circuit board. Do solder the lose contact, specially on chroma IC.

A few weeks ago my set started flashing to a black screen. Now a couple of weeks later, i have no picture, but the set turns on and i have sound. The standby light is flashing. I purchased the set in 2000 so it is seven years old. This is the first problem. Could it be all three of the bulbs? Could it be all three of the bulbs? no as you say that sound is ok that means your power supply &high voltage section is ok. please check chroma ic luminance section or system control section stand by ckt ihanks

Finlux tv showing black screen after switching on by remote. standby light is flashing buy mo picture or sound

These blinks [flashes] are fault indication (Error Codes). From the number of blinks occur at one time switch ON, you can get an idea about the faulty circuit section inside it. This will make repair easy. These are called blinking codes. Make sure about the exact number of blinking of the standby/power LED, by switching On & OFF the set, for at least two times. Count it carefully. If you wish to get some details, check the site linked here. It has details about blinking codes, and fault locating procedure, to many popular brand TVs and other devices.

If blinks continue without any pause, the main board is faulty.

"on" light flashes twice and then "blacks out"

IF power light comes on and a few seconds later goes off, do the self check this model has.

On front of set when this happens, press and hold both the menu and input (device) buttons at the same time for at least 5 seconds and then release both buttons.

Watch the power light closely, it should blink a two digit error code like; 2 blinks, 2 blinks, a pause and then repeat it several times.

Let me know what error code you find and I will tell you what it means.

Sony Bravia KDL 46", no picture, standby light blinks 4 times

Since the TV is still receiving power, the problem is going to be with the TV's mainboard. After you unplugged the TV and plugged it back in, you said the power light went out again, so I assume the standby light wasn't flashing again? The flashing standby light is indicating an error code so my suggestion is to contact Sony for service options regardless if there is a warranty or not because service is the only solution to this situation. Don't forget to provide them the error code or 4 flashes repeating.

SOUND NO PICTURE

Hello, You have a high voltage section problem I would not suggest fixing this set on your own. You will need to take this set to the shop. Because there are no user repairable parts inside of the set.
