My tv model: KDF-E50A10. I've replaced the lamp several times. Each time the lamp seemingly goes bad within a week with only mild use. The TV will power on with a picture for about 2 minutes, then the screen goes black and the green power/standby light flashes continuously for a minute. Lastly the screen comes back on with picture for another 2 minutes before it starts the whole cycle again. Buying another new lamp will get it to work normally for another couple of days before the lamp seemingly goes bad and it goes back into the power cycling behavior again. No red light flashes at all, only the continuous flashing of the green power/standby light during the black screen. The green power light stays on solid when it's between cycles and the screen is working with picture. TV is clean, all the cooling fans are working with good air flow. Why do my lamps keep burning out so quickly?

Hello apharcha,
99.99% its the lamp. You may also have a faulty door, but thats kinda just 2% possibility. Change the lamp...its due anyway.

Sounds like a bad lamp, the lamp needs to be replaced every few years and rebooting is a symptom of a bad lamp. you can buy a lamp for around $100 -120 if you search the internet

Without having a technician there to diagnose this problem is going to take some troubleshooting. First, I would take the lamp back out of the TV and then reinstall it and try turning the TV on again. If that does not work there could be numerous things wrong with the TV. The heat sensor in the TV could be bad or the actual light engine, which is essentially the heart of the TV, could be bad. If it is the light engine then it is cheaper to buy a new TV.

Strange situation, have you tried unplugging it for a few minutes and letting the TV cool. I have a older 2006 Sony SXRD rear projection and it takes forever to turn back on if you shut it off then turn it back on. Check this link and maybe its giving you a blinking code. Try counting the number of blinks. Hope this helps.
