    sony kd-85x85j Looking for info on how to remove back cover

    Like the title states. TV is 3 years old and Im getting 6 red blinks, which is backing lighting issue or driver. I just cant find any info on how to remove the panel to access. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

      There are no screws anywhere on the plastic back. There is an aluminum frame that is on the 2 sides and on the top that has tiny screws in them. I removed them thinking the frame would come off easily, but they didnt and I didnt want to exert too much force and snap or break something.

          Yep, same as video, a good rule is be careful around the bottom because some tvs don't have the protective metal along the bottom where the driver boards and tabs are. In those you don't want to be jabbing things in there blindly, at least not past where you can see what it's touching.

            Ok I got it. Using that video above, when I saw he had the same aluminum frame work, I gave it a shot and I was able to remove the cover fairly easy. Mods if you want to delete this thread, thats fine, unless you want to leave it for reference.

              Since I cant find much on this model number as far as removal, whats your thoughts on finding videos from the above model in that video to get to the back lighting? When he has his opened up, it looks really close in comparison to mine.
