The standby/on button is blinking and i cant figure out how to take it out of standby. pushing the button again does not work and i cant get my disk out

These blinks [flashes] are fault indication (Error Codes). From the number of blinks occur at one time switch ON, you can get an idea about the faulty circuit stage inside it. This will make repair easy. These are called blinking codes. Make sure about the exact number of blinking of the standby/power led, by switching On & OFF the set, for at least two times. Count it carefully. If you wish to get some details, check the site linked here. It has details about blinking codes, and fault locating, to many popular brand TVs and other devices.

If blinks continue without any pause, the main board is faulty.

I have a Sony SRS BBE Trinitron (WEGA). The last few days when I tried to turn it on using the remote the Red Light would go on but the TV did not turn on. I would have to press the power button again to turn it on.. I tought the remote battery was just low.

Today when I tried to turn it on nothing is happening and the Red Light is blinking 9 times ??? I tried to unplug it and try it again, still does the same thing ???

if you now how to used soldering iron , resolder your tv

This is usually an indication of a failure in the scan amplifier sections. When the scan amplifiers or high voltage sections fail, the main power supply will usually also require servicing.

It is very common that the fly-back and high voltage multiplier and also the horizontal output stage fails in these sets. Along with it, the power supply will usually require to be serviced. On rare occasions, the vertical deflection amp fails.

had the same problem and did th Push the Advanced Surround & Enter buttons at the same time for three seconds like n2fire mentioned and mine turned back on. I guess that is the reset button. All is good again...

The first thing to check is the horizontal output transistor,it might have shorted out and opened the fuse or safety resistor that gives him power to operate,sometimes it goes bad by itself and sometimes the output transformer goes bad and takes him out too.If you are familiar with tv service you have a place to check but if you are not to familiar be safe and seek the help of a servicer.Let Us know how it goes or if you need more information.
