    Problem with our Sony KDL 46VL160

    It is just a little over 2 years old turned it on the afternoon and little over half the screen is a darker shade.The right half of the screen looks as though it is in a shadow.

      Most likely a bad panel. Repairable.

      Different symptoms, same cause:

        Sony KD-55XG9505 lines on screen problem
        by Chrissygizmo
        Hello again everyone,

        This is my latest mission, to try getting this Sony tv back to normal working order…

        I've only just got it today, when you power it up everything is as should be, in fact it works perfectly for a few minutes then the screen starts getting horizontal lines on & eventually the full screen goes back, I will upload photos of the problem & also some photos of the board etc. You might notice that I'm busy trying the tape method, I'm not sure exactly where the clock lines are so I'm just guessing & hoping for the best lol . I've already tried...

        Sony HCD-HX80R Amplifier Volume Control Problem
        by crackedprint
        I have a strange fault on a Sony amplifier. The volume control varies the display from MIN, then 1 up to 30 and then MAX as expected. At MIN there is no sound. However, at 1 it is quite loud and increasing above 1 does not change the sound level.

        I have tried a Cold Reset as per the service manual.

        I have looked at the I2C clock and data to volume control chip IC501 (BD3499FV). Data is only sent to IC501 when the volume is set to MIN or 1. At any other setting no data is sent to IC501.

        I have looked all the way through the service manual and tried many online...

        SONY KDL-40P3600 Picture Problem
        by retrorepair
        Hello gurus, hope you can assist me...

        I have a Sony KDL.40P3600, with an issue on the left side of the screen (pictures attached).

        I think the problem is the panel, but before send it to trash, i would like to get a second opinion.

        Thanks in advance.

        MAG274QRF-QD 27" gaming monitor half backlight shadow
        by kalemaroni
        A customer called me up and said that half the screen was like a shadow - presumably the backlight has partially gone. I've never done a repair like this on a monitor, only circuit board based repair on Macbooks etc - is it something that's doable or generally not?
