Larry Dillon said: Thats all good my friend, but that is only a temporary fix, and may work for a while, but you will still need to replace the
tube in the near future. What is the model number of the set you are looking for? As to the focus, the focus controls are on the same block
where you turned down the screen control to fix the set temporarily. What you need to do is take off the front screen. look at the focus
controls and screen control block. They will have a R, G, and a B next to the focus control. With the screen off the set and the TV turned on,
look right into the picture tube lens while rocking back and forth that color of tube you are looking into so that you can focus that color. Do
the same for the other two colors. Now, take a soft cloth, spray some Windex onto the cloth. wipe off the lens on the three tubes as well as on
the mirrors and that should make the set look pretty good for a short time till the set starts to shut down again.
Thanks for the info. My set is a Sony KP51WS500. Do you happen to know the part number for the Blue Bulb and where one can be found?
Larry, Can you send me the service manual for KP51WS500? I have the focus cleaned up as best as possible, but have ghosting(white/light
blue) of images like lines on the football field etc. Is this because the blue bulb is going? Text is easy to read on the screen now.

hello,
I was reading this article trying to fix my projection T.V. and Larry, you clearly have alot of knowledge of the subject so I thought I would
post and see what came of it. Model # is KP46WT510,
It had an eight blink diagnostic code which I found to be the HV block. Replaced that and fired it up. Powered on, albeit with a convergence
issue, but nonetheless seemed to be working. I hit the flash focus and about five minutes later the T.V. cut out. Now all I get is a six blink
diagnostic. On the web this seems to be a voltage issue of some kind. Read it could be the flyback transformer. Wondering what you thought
of it. When I hit the power button it seems to try to power on for less than a second and then shuts off and gives the six blink code.
Could you also send the service manual for the set as well? email: k2schaib@hotmail.com
Thanks Larry

Hi Larry,
I want to add my thanks to the many before me who have thanked you for the service you are providing on this board. Your advice has
helped so many, which gives me hope you can do the same for me.
My KDF-50WE655 went bad on me a couple of weeks ago. It quit while I was watching (powered itself off). Now, when I try to turn it on, it
attempts to start (I hear a few on/off clicks of a relay and see a very quick screen flash) before it gives up and shows me 10 blinks of the red
Power/Standby light. I've learned a lot from reading through this entire thread, so I decided to give it a go on my own before contacting you.
I managed to find a copy of the Service Manual online (I'd be happy to share it with you if you don't have one) and learned that the 10 blinks
for my TV means "ATSC-OVP error" - "Probable Cause: No 'DTL Module 5V' output (G1 board, G2 board)". I studied the schematics, but
without any real diagnostic tools at my disposal, I made an educated guess that the G1 board was the culprit. I ordered a new board, put it in
the set and tried it, but the symptoms were exactly the same.
Now I've reverted to the old G1 board, and I'm at a loss for what my next step should be. I can order a G2 board, but I'm trying to avoid the
shotgun approach (although it seems I've already started down that road). I'm concerned about the clicking relay... I don't understand what
might be causing that (or if, perhaps, it's the relay itself that's bad - which is on the F Board). I'm wondering if you might have any ideas on
what might be causing my problem. Any thoughts would be very much appreciated.

Larry:
First off, let me say that you are the man. What a great post and it's great to see that you take the time out to help DIYers. OK, now to my
question - I have a 5 year old SONY XBR KV-34XBR800 set. I'm getting the dreaded 7-flashes on the standby light. After downloading the
service manual it looks like this is symptomatic of "Horizontal Deflection Stopped" Which according to the manual is:
Horizontal Defl ection Stopped
Occurs when either:
1) a +B overcurrent is detected (IC5007), or
2) overheating is detected (Thermistor TH5002).
Which according to the manual is:
+B Overcurrent (OCP)* 2 times 2:0 or 2:1 H.OUT (Q5030) is shorted. (D Board)
+B PWM (Q5003) is shorted.
(D Board)
