    This worked for me too! I'm still in shock.

    Any one know how the original firmware would get corrupted? We suspect a power surge.

        Yep, was a lightning storm that borked the firmware in my case.

            I know this is an old and dead thread, but I just picked up a KDL-52S4100 off the side of the road and immediately did a firmware update since it was the easiest course of action. It fired right up. It had a steady green light and no picture or back light. Now I am just curious as to why this ever was a problem / solution. Thank you all!

                Thunderstorm borked mine, I think some tvs including the infamous kdl's are a little more prone to firmware corruption, with a power surge and the like, hard to tell what all will do it but a power surge can for sure. Good reason to use good quality surge protectors.

                    Trying to Save - SONY BRAVIA KD-75X780F - No Picture BUT there’s sound
                    by KYBOSH
                    Previous owner said TV just went blank one day.
                    They attempted to open the back panel and yanked the power connector off the power supply in the meantime.
                    Easily fixed that and got the TV to turn on. Backlights come one with everything connected. Good Sign.
                    The mainboard shows signs of life (red light on digital audio out is on) but that's about it. Good Sign.
                    There is not blinking LED and the most importantly there is LED response and sound when I press the MENU button on remote control. GREAT Sign.

                    Sony Bravia KDL-40v4100 has no picture but has power, backlight, and sound
                    by ryandesign
                    Hello! I would like to repair my father's Sony Bravia KDL-40v4100 LCD TV. It was in perfect working order the last time I used it before the pandemic. Then it sat plugged in but unused for a year or more. And now everything still works except that there is no picture on the screen. A relay can be heard to click when the power cable is connected. When the power button is pressed there is a green power LED and then the backlight turns on. If I connect an HDMI cable and play something with audio I can hear it through the speakers. The remote control buttons are recognized. There is just never anything...

                    Sony XBR 49x900E - Sound and backlight on but no picture
                    by DKWS89
                    Hey Guys,

                    So a few months ago my Sony XBR 49x900e TV screen stopped displaying the picture but the backlight comes on and I still get sound when I use the remote and navigate to certain apps. I haven't checked anything with the meter yet but started with ordering some replacement boards. I've tried replacing the BMKS board (used from ebay) and also completed the firmware upgrade based on Nicks TV repairs youtube video. I've also replaced the TCON (twice) and PIB.

                    All of these changes have resulted in the same issue with no picture. I've also tried disconnecting the ribbons...

                    Sony Bravia KD-50X690E NO SOUND
                    by x_orange90_x
                    Finally got my KD-50X690E up and running after replacing the power supply. Upon testing it I noticed the lack of sound from the speakers. At first I just ignored it thinking it was set to external speakers or some other kind of audio setting. However, after actually going into settings and looking around I see nothing of this sort. I looked it up on Google and apparently a lot of people have disappearing audio on a variety of Sony TVs 🙄. I'm going to see if a firmware or software update will resolve it, if available.

                    Has anyone else had this happen to their tv?
