Sony Bravia KDL-40W2000 flashing

[reporter1979]

Hello all!

A lightning burned this TV, Sony Bravia KDL-40W2000 that shows the 3-flash error code.
I have read old threads here about this issue and I'm writing this just to ask an advice.

First I replaced the power supply board (25€) just to discover that the issue remains. Now I have the option to replace the mainboard too (the one with HDMI ports) for another 40€.

Considering I'm not a professional technician just an enthusiast, what would you do? Thanx in advance.

worth a shot, a lightning strike usually takes out one or the other sometimes both, 40 isn't real low but if you really like the tv, why not, go for it, should fix the problem.

Download the service manual for your TV and find out what the 3 flash error code relates to. It should highlight where the fault is located.
