    Sony KDL-37V5810

    Aqquired this tv where its exactley the same as another post - https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showth...ht=kdl-37v5810

    However on mine, when its switched on, the green light comes on for about 20 - 30 seconds followed by turning to 8 red flashes.

    Its exactley the same boards inside as the other post and all the voltages are there when turned on just like the other post pointing to a mainboard fault as in the other post too.

    I have read a service bullitin that was issued regarding the software on the boards and for engineers to upgrade it using the Memory Stick slot located behind the Card slot.

    It doesnt display anything on screen and doesnt light up, has anyone had any success with the Sony Mem Stick to re-program the tv? Only i cant seem to find any replacement mainboards

    Here is a link to the firmware update but I don't think you can do the update unless the tv is working and you are able to see the menu.

      Thanks, i already noticed that but i did find something better , i got the actual files for a mainboard reload plus the techs documents for install etc i'll try add the rar file with all the images, they do have to be loaded onto a old type Sony Memory Stick though, not sure if Mem Stick Duo will work

      It also has software/firmware for various models from 32 inch to 50 inch it appears too

      The file is about 65mb so im uploading to a file share thing and i'll share in a minute or two

          Sony Memory Stick formatter tool (for KDL-26U4000)
          by Dannyx
          Good day folks. This is going to be slightly embarrassing, since I work in an "authorized" Sony center, yet here I am asking for help in various third-party places As I always said, there's no such thing as "perfect anything" and nobody can claim they know everything, so help is always welcome as long as it gets the job done. Let's cut to the chase:

          KDL-26U400 has a strange issue: wide purple vertical dotted bar shows up at the left side after power-on. I thought it's a panel issue, but then I reconsidered it: it goes away when you change the source, but you...

          Sony KDL-46HX850 Can't upgrade/update firmware
          by dkneyle
          Diagnosed this TV as having a failed main board which I've replaced with one from a KDL 55HX850. They are (supposedly) the same board.

          Being 'Smart TV' it requires a firmware reboot when you swap out boards such as T-Con or main board. It starts with a black screen and flashing yellow and green LEDS, indicating it needs that firmware boot. The procedure described all over the web is to put the software into the root directory of a FAT32 formatted USB drive and it should load that up once plugged into USB1 port. But not for me. I can see the LED on the USB chip flash for about...

          PS4 controller left stick potentiometer replacement issue
          by ezenia
          Hello,

          Not sure if this is the correct section, but I have a PS4 controller that I am trying to fix. It developed stick drift on the left stick and the usual simpler methods did not fix the problem.

          So I went on eBay and ordered some replacement potentiometers. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/174967976757 is where I got them from.

          I took the green potentiometers off the replacement sticks and soldered them onto the PCB. Assembled the controller and ran some tests. The drifting was somewhat fixed (not fully in center, but way better than before). However,...
