Hi, I have the Sony KDL40V2000 and it has just failed with 4 blinking lights. see from the above what this means, not interested in trying to
fix it myself, but any ideas as to how much I should be paying to get it fixed ? Set is just out of warranty.
thanks
Jim

These newer TV sets have different codes then what they are on the older sets. This code means one of the fans in the set is not working. it
could be a control board, a fan itself, or a bad connection on one of the fans plugs. This should be anywhere from 150 to 500 bucks depending
on what is wrong. You should call in an authorized Sony repair depot, as they all have the right parts and there will be no guesswork involved.
Good Luck.

mk2000, I do not have your model, but I do have the KV32S45, and that is the same chassis number, AA2D that they use in yours. I do not
know where to send it though. No e-mail address. Sorry, my crystal ball is in the shop right now.

Larry, i have actually learned a lot from reading your posts. Thanks for that. I don't believe that i've seen a direct response to my earlier
post though. Any thoughts? It was the kp-53s35 with seven blinks. Thanks!

Larry Dillon said: Six blinks - No Horizontal (H STOP), no raster, goes to the blinking self-diagnosis function immediately. Check C515 &
516 and the jungle IC, IC206. If yoiu have no TV repair experience, I highly advise you to call in a trained tech to assist you in this repair, as
this repair will involve dealing with the high voltage circuit. good Luck.

I'm so glad I found this site! After reading a few of the post, I can't wait to rip off the back of my TV. I'm having the same problem as above,
Six Blinks ect. I have a Sony KDF-55WF655 and I took it to a local TV repair shop that gave me a free estimate. They said I have a bad Power
Supply Module and they also recommend that I replace the bulb because it looks a little cloudy, and the cost would be $750 bucks. Wow! I
was just thinking, I see bulbs all day long for $150 so how much could the power supply module be? These guys must be making a killing, I'm
definately in the wrong business. Anyway, knowing whats wrong with the TV is a start. I'm an electrician, I'm sure I can replace a power
supply myself, I just need a part number. Do you happen to have the service manual or know the part numbers that I need for a power supply
module and a bulb? I appreciate any help or advice that you may have to offer. Thanks for your time Larry

wayne, on your set the codes have changed. It says there is low B+ and most likely the G1 board, but there is no guaranty on that. It could be a
couple of different things. Yes that is a bit steep for a repair. I happen to have the manual, if you want it. I just got it for another repair I had.
So maybe we can split the cost of it? LOL Where would you like me to send it to?
