Sony KD-30xs955 will not come on, no audio or video. LED blinks 7 times, pauses, then blinks 7 time again. Power can only be turned off by removing the plug from the electrical outlet, remote and power button have no effect.

Hello

Seven blinkd of standby light in Sony TVs denotes a High Voltage Shutdown. Sony TVs have a special circuit built into, called Self Fault Daiagosis. This stage will detect the faulty stage and will give its symptoms in the form of blinks, and are codes to understand the fauty stage inside.
Here in your TV, its Extra High Tension [EHT] voltage at the final anode of the picture tube exeeds its maximum, that is it goes beyond 30KV (30,000VDC], and it is dangerous, that such high voltage will cause X ray radiation from the tube, and the above ciruit sense this condition and gives you a code of seven blinks.

To rectify this fault, you must begin with its main power regulation section. Plug out the TV from AC mains, and open it. Locate the power regulating system. It is easy, that the mains wire goes directly to that section. Which will have a fuse and large filter capacitor, retifier stalk, and an STK Ic screwed onto a heatsink. The STK Ic is the power regulator. It will heat up to more than 70 degree centegrade, and this heat will spread to its surroundings. There are some small capacitors, electrolytic types, are there, has a chance to reduce its actual value due to this heat, and value reduced capacitors will make problems to the actual regulation. you just replace all that capacitors first, keep an eye on its polarity, ie electrolytic capacitors have positve and negative terminals. There will have 5 or so of them, which will not cost too much, and easy to get from any electronic spare part shop.
Check all the soldering points in the power regulator section for any loose or bad solderings. It is best to resolder all the suspected soldering points by applying a little more solder, that loose solderings are very difficult to detect. Resolder all the pins of the above said STK Ic.
Then find out the secondary voltage stage, secondary side of the SMPS transmormer, a small transformer fitted to this section. For 30" TVs, the secondary main voltage will come around 125VDC to 130VDC. There is no adjustment controls for adjusting this voltage, as STK Ics are very accurate in regulation. If it seems to be more than the voltage said above, STK ic may be defective, and should be replaced with an identical type and number.
Before checking the secondary DC voltage said above, just disconnect the supply rail which goes to LOT said above, otherwise the set will shutdown, and there will be no chance to measure this voltage.
Just keep in mind that the power regulator system of your TV has the trouble. You just do these first, and if any more assistance needed, contact me through Fixya. Ok.

7 time blinks tv sony kd-65x8500f

The 7 blinks on your TV is letting you know then that there is an error with the temperature of your TV or the sensor is not working or your TV is overheating. Or there is is an issue with the KD board or the GD board or an audio error.

7 blinks

Assuming the basics have been signed off, the usual reason that a set will not fire up is a power supply problem. In sets like yours the supply comes from the transistor that supplies the screen with pulses and hence high voltage. In short with a set as old as this I personally would not be bothered getting it repaired. You could probably find someone giving a working set away for free on numerous local selling websites.

Sony KD-30xs955 television won't turn on.

Anthony from Infotech posted the solution at another location:
6 and 7 blink codes 90% of the time are failure of the two control chips on the DZ board IC8002 and IC6501 both are MCZ3001D available from www.mcmelectronics.com
An ability to solder well is required to do this
Alternate solutions are to send the board to www.ptscorp.com and they will replace the chips or replace the board subject to availibility
A technician would charge $350 for this depends where you are

I replaced the lamp and now my left speaker makes a sound as if its not conected correctly, then the tv turns off and the red light blinks seven (7) times, pauses and blinks 7 times again.

Hi,

7blinks is an error code for "Audio Error". This kind of symptoms is an indication of fault either on the KD board AKA Audio board or the G1 board (supply line for audio board).
You have to isolate the fault between the two boards by measuring the supply line for the audio board. If the supply voltage is intact this is an indication that you need to replaced the KD board. If there's no output voltage from G1 board feeding the KD board, then you have to replaced the G1 board.

Hope I helped you.
Have a nice day!
Thanks for using fixya.

My fd trintron wega (kd-0xs955) will sound as if it is starting of when POWER is pressed then the red stand by blinks a few times and nothing else when it is just plugged into the wall (no cable connected)

The flashing light is "Code" for diagnostics. Count the flashes before it pauses. Some Sony user manuals will have the answer in the troubleshooting section of the manual. If you don't have your manual,

That's the link.

Hope this helps

Sony Trinitron Wega Standby blinks & the TV won't turn on

Those 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 section 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 procedure, to many popular brand TVs and other devices.

If blinks continue without any pause, the main board is faulty.
Search the site by type in the "brand name" to your device, in the "Search box at the top right of the display window of the Homepage" to get gathered related posts.
