Little blue dots all over the screen. changed lamp but no difference. model KDF60XS955 Sony.

No, you have a failing optic block. This is the polarizers failing inside. Very expensive to repair. Better off buying a new TV.

Thats caused by a bad optical block. The cost of that repair will almost always be greater than replacing the TV.Thats a very common issue with alot of Sony DLP models which suffered that optical block issue with the blobs of color usually blue or green

General instructions will be in the owner manual and You Tube has video instructions for most sets based on model number.

The blue hue on the side and dots are most likely a damaged (burnt light or optical light engine).

This is very common and you may want to contact Sony as there were programs for some models even if OUT OF WARRANTY.


The lamp in the set shines into a a L shaped engine with baffles and lens (red, green, and blue segments) and Blue is closest to the heat from the lamp and usually is the first place to get this type of damage.

I do not enjoy giving bad news but this is what I am sure is your problem.

REGARDS, SD TECH

The light engine is bad. Contact Sony. Even out of warranty they have been replacing some of these.

sound like you have a bad optical block which is a common problem for sony lcd projection sets

thats a common symptom for that model which is usually related to the optical block. Very exspensive repair. Check with a sony authorized repair center as Sony has recognized the problem and offer assistance with certain models yours may be one of the ones affected.

Once again, this is a problem with the optical block or light engine assy. The LCD panels have been damaged by excessive heat from the lamp. Sony has been directed by the New York state attorney general's office to extend warranties on these sets for models going back 4 years. Call Sony at 1-800-222-SONY for assistance.

Sony has an extended warranty on this issue right now. You can contact Sony and they will take care of it.

Probably the optics block. It needs to be replaced.

However, it looks like you're in luck. Sony will reimburse you.
