      I looked at a similar board over and I see several places that are labeled fuses but I'll be damned if I can tell where they are, I know some will have a label but just not be included in a particular design.

        I think I'll try a new main board and see if that gets this working again. Not sure what issues it might have at this point.

          ok, if you are sure you are getting a new mainboard, something you can try if that there is a cap and not a fuse, is just remove it with a soldering iron and try the tv, I have seen this work, that is removing a shorted cap and tv working with it removed.

            if you find a place with decent prices send me a message, still need one for my 900c.

              Going to see if I can find one in a known working condition on ebay.

                The fuses are in the photo, the motherboard has nothing to do with error 4 associated with the LCD Panel ...

                  The circled fuses are not blown.

                  So the above chart is showing 4 red flashes means the panel itself is the issue?

                    This is everything related to the panel, backlight (leds), led driver, power led driver...
                    There is a problem with the panel or with the T-con, then the error would be "5".

                      I think it’s backlight related. Unplug the blue tabbed cable from the main board and plug the tv in. It will do a backlight test and if it the leds are good the leds will stay lit

                        Note you might have to unplug the lvds cables going to the tcon also.

                        I'm not sure as I already had the screen out and those cables unhooked when I discovered the led test cycle.

                          It's going through a color pattern, checkerboard pattern. No signs of it turning off. It's playing ambient music as well.

                            I had 4 blinks plus many shorted caps on mainboard, have not decided on replacing mainboard but I think thats the issue.

                              It could not be a short circuit, but a very low resistance on this bus (processor core power), just like on this 4 ohm board.

                                Well, you wanted to order a motherboard (and that would be the same mistake).

                                  I found a set of all boards from a supposed cracked tv.
                                  Might get that and change out all the boards.

                                    Well whats the answer then, storyteller just said if the backlights stay on they are ok and they stayed on.

                                      The answer is this - the protection of the led backlight is turned off and the processor thinks that everything is in order with the backlight.

                                        ok, just to satisfy curiosity can you test that cap on the new mainboard when you get it, to see if it reads the same.

                                          ok, I get it, thanks for explaining, so it could still be a backlight issue.

                                            Sony 85x90CK 4 red blink
                                            by EazyBone
                                            So I got this Sony and purchased it working.. got it home and it was 4 blinks red. Seller actually refunded me thankfully. Now it's massive to take apart and I know 4 blink can be the panel sometimes but not always..

                                            But I found a method through other ways with grounding out the bl error pin on the LD driver board. Now the tv turns on and works.

                                            Pin is number 27. It was either remove the resistor right next to the solder pad or solder the pad to ground. I soldered the pad.

                                            Now what is this going to do to the tv? Is it just going to die shortly down the road?...

                                            by x_orange90_x
                                            I just removed the back cover to test the backlights because when I first plug it in it will flash once and then start dark but I can see the image. I got 131v on string 1 and 167v on string 2. Usually when I get a bad set the meter reads 300v and they won't light up. When testing, each set lights up inside the tv. When I plug in the power and check the leads with my multimeter both strings are only about 3v.

                                            Does this difference in voltage between the strings indicate that the lesser has bad LEDs? Or is it normal that they are not the same voltage? I've read some about this tv and...

                                            Sony RB2G Chassis KDL-55W815B MAIN BOARD 2 Blink Error issue resolved! Happy days :)
                                            by cheeky2
                                            For anyone interested just repaired this Sony Main board TV that had a 2 blink error code, the chassis is a RB2G which is common to quite a few different Sony models. The Ceramic 10uF 25V X7R 1206 capacitor C9114 was shorted which took the smd 2A 0603 fuse out F9101. This was powering the Buck converter TPS54332 which caused no 5V output from it.
                                            See the attached picture of the locations of both components. I also attach the best service manual I found for this board for anyone else in a similar position of trying to repair this main board. It's not specific to the TV model however it gives...

                                            Sony XR-77A80J OLED 5 Blink

                                            Another eazybone post took on this OLED now.

                                            Symptoms. Hit power, white light shows briefly and then 5 blink red code. TCON issue per chart on first picture.

                                            I'm thinking I have a power board issue though, which is one of the options

                                            Now to check pin voltages from PSU to main and PSU to tcon

                                            Pic 2

                                            1 tcon on 12 -- 0v (when I hit power this goes to 3.1 stays for short time and back to zero)
                                            2 bl err -- 0.16
                                            3 evdd on --0
                                            4. Ac off det 3.187
                                            5 power on -- 3.362 BUT fluctuating randomly to 3.352
