Is this problem an easy fix, or should I just get a new television?

I have a Sony Model #KV-32FS320 FD Trinitron Wega and I am getting 9 blinks. Does this mean that the switching regulator has gone
south? If so what is the average cost to have this replaced? The set will from time to time turn back on, but then once it is turned on, it's back
to the self timer blinking its 9 blinks. I have even unplugged the set for a period of time in hopes that it was just an error caused by
inadvertently hitting the wrong button(s) on the remote, (supposedly according to the owner's manual unplugging the set will reset some of
the codes) but to no avail. Any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

I have a KV-27S42 and am getting the THREE Blinks---B+ over voltage protection (OVP), unit goes to the standby mode
then displays the 3 blink fault. This is also a problem in the power supply circuit, check T603 and R672.
I am not sure what this means or where to check. I am not affraid to crack the case and get after it, but just
dont know where to start with this. Any advise?

We have a KV-27S26 Sony Trinitron. When we try to turn it on, the standby light keeps blinking 1 second apart. The screen is blank, but
with sound. I saw that when that light blinks this way that there's a problem with the jungle IC or the IK video.
The thing is, once in a while, after repeated turning it on and off, we could make the set work. Sometimes, when the video comes on, after a
few second it will will turn gray then video out. Then sometimes, the video will come on for a few second, then the picture will only be
displayed at the upper half portion of the screen (reversed) then video will go out again.
What's even weird, sometimes, after that repeated on/off sequence, the set will turn on and will work great for hours (even days if we leave it
on) until we turn off the unit. Then it's back to that same problem.
Does this problem makes any sense to anybody? This TV was manufactured back in 1997 and I'm still debating if it's worth sending to the
repair shop. If anybody has any idea, please let me know.
Thanks!

I have a kp51hw40 and it's showing a green screen and then shutting off and showing 8 blinks. Is this really only an audio problem? Any idea
on where to get parts and repar?

Larry, at the risk of sounding very dumb, I need to ask you the following: on my kp57hw40 i am trying to put in in diagnostic mode per your
instructions.
question1: do i start with the TV on or off?
question2: when you say, in the sequence, to press Channel, is it Ch+ or Ch-?
question3: is there a way to get a standard picture on the screen to see if the colors are what they should be?
Many thanks,
Paul

Hello again, unfortunately I am back. I was surprised with a not so great present on my birthday. While watching my newly fixed kp-57hw40
last night, the screen began flickering while getting very fuzy and making a lound "sizzling sound" (not sure if the sound was coming from
inside the set or through the speakers, or both). Within 3 secs, the set powered itself down, but the standby light remained blinking. When I
pressed the power, it powered back on momentarily, but the problems starting reoccurring so I turned it back off. I am hoping that I simply
had the set on for too long as I was using it for various things nearly all day and all night. I come to you now to see if there is a known cause
for this, and what [if any] special measures I should take before powering the set pack on to test it. Thanks

Ok, I turned it back on today with the back cover off and literally saw flames coming from what I believe is the flyback transformer on the D
board (see image). I know I can get a new one to replace it with for pretty cheap, but will that fix the problem, or is it possible for something
else to be causeing the small flames which come from under this part?
