My Sony 54" Grand Wega rear projection TV is 4 years old in Sep. It has started losing picture and sound for a few seconds then comes back on. It is getting more and more frequent. . . like six times in 5...

Pictures goes black while power light blinks green

I have a 40 but i was having the same problem. It turned out to be my lamp. I got a brand new lamp from Projector Lamp Services (relampit.com) and my tv works fine now. Im pretty sure that the 40 and the 60 take the same lamp. You might want to give them a call.
