Tv turns on for less than 30 seconds and turns off and red light is blinking

Hi John,
TV going off in thirty seconds and red light blinking means there is something wrong inside your Tv and it should not be working in this condition and hence is the "going off" happening. The automatic protection inside is switching your tv off. Please consult some local TV tech. There is nothing you can do about it yourself.
Good Luck.

When turning on the TV the green light on the front does not come on. You hear a click and then about ten seconds later you hear another click but the tv never comes on.

What light do you get, green blinking, red blinking, yellow steady light or yellow blinking light. The led lights will tell what is wrong with your tv.

Tv not turning on

I also have this model. A few months ago, when I turned on the tv, it told me my lamp was in need of replacement. just yesterday, my tv did the same as you....the blue light flashed and then the lamp light kept flickering. All I can say is your lamp needs to be replaced.

Cant fix my sony KP-53S65

If the TV will not turn on and the red light blinks on the front of the set, it means that the microprocessor has detected a problem in the set and shut the set down. It then blinks the red light a certain number of times, and the number of blinks is the code for why the set has shut off. How many times does the red light blink before repeating?
