go to turn tv on,hear a poping noise,once then tv standby lite blinks 3 times repeatily but no picture or audio.can you help me out with this thank you

I have a Sony Trinitron 32 color tv KV 2168MTJ (quite old - 10 yrs old), and the standby light blinks exactly 200 times (just over 3 mins) before it turns on. Once it is on, it works perfectly. What's wrong with it and how can i fix it?

the power supply section should be resoldered....must be loose contact..in power section...

I have a 36 Trinitron, the sound and picture went but the red light just keeps blinking, any ideas? Please ....

Hello,
Can you tell me how many times red standby light blinks?

I have a tie dye of rainbow colors on the whole screen. Is the screen shot?

Sony has a code for those blinks indicating the problem area. Count the blonks till the pause then google Sony blink codes for the area to fix.

Is the red light flashing a code ? exaple 4 blinks pause 4 blinks ?

You can find the date of manufacture in the back label,if the set is a 1990 maybe then is not worth repairing but is only a 2002 set is only 4 yeras old and the set has most likely a good picture tube,the symptom you are giving us does not indicate a bad picture tube,you should get a second opinion ,it might something as simple as a loose conection in the horizontal drive transformer.Let Us know how it goes or if you need more information.
