Sony Grand Wega KDF-E50A10

TV turns off by itself, then the Power/Standby light flashes for about 30 seconds. TV then comes back on by itself. It is not the bulb light flashing. Sony was no help! They told me to try the common sense things like unplugging and resetting the TV. I have read on previous posts this is a pretty common problem, why will Sony not cover it??? Is it the power supply/regulator??? If so can anyone replace it?

Thanks,
Not happy with Sony!

Same problem. It would power up. After a few minutes it would shut down with standby light flashing. Power up and cycle. Replaced the lamp and cleaned out the housing. Works fine.

The lamp light does not have to flash on this set for it to be the lamp, and most likely it is just that, the lamp. These sets when the lamps get weak they will do exactly what yours is doing.

The picture goes off, the power/standby light

Sony KDF-60XS955 picture goes and power/standby light light flashes


Hi,

Most likely you have bulb failure. First step in troubleshooting is "Change the Lamp or Bulb". Lightning, power line bumps and collisions with vacuum cleaners can all shorten lamp life. Rough handling in shipment can also happen without your knowledge.

+90% of all Sony LCD Rear Projector "No Picture or Intermittent Picture" faults are related to bulb failure.

If new lamp does not improve the situation, then hands-on troubleshooting by someone that has parts and knows how the unit works is the only practical remedy.

Problem for Sony Grand WEGA KDF-55WF655. Hello,

5 times Red LED blinks means Lamp Driver Error. (KDF-55WF655)
2 possible reasons, either Lamp is gone or Ballast Supply got bad.
Replace lamp first, in most cases it solved the problem.
How old is this TV and did you replaced lamp recently?
Thanks.

Why does my sony vega keep turning it self off and back on again

Im guessing it is doiong this about every 30 seconds or so. Im also guessing that when the sound and picture go out, the green standby light flashes until the set comes back on. If this is the case, mine was doing the same thing. I did a bunch of research. I replaced the lamp and the tv is like new, no more problems. The lamp light on the front of the set does not come on because the lamp/bulb is noot burned out all the way. I bought my lamp from www.vanns.com , the best price I found.

Sony KDF-E50A10 50 in. HDTV stays on for 25 - 30 minutes then shuts off by itself power stand by light flashes green and turns back on in about 20 seconds by itself. can you help?

Hi, Lamp of TV getting weaker and requires replacement. This shut off by itself will increase day by day until you put new lamp in TV. Always Buy Sony original lamp and avoid aftermarket/ cheap lamp for TV safety.
