I have a Sony KDL55EX720 TV I am having a issue with. I have worked on TVs in the past but that was over 20 years ago so I am relearning them. This TV will start up fine and work for about 5 minutes. Then it shuts itself off and the red light blinks 10 times. I did a search here but all I could find was 5 blinks. I did find a link to the service manual and it pointed to the T-CON board and a issue with the emitter. My question is does this sound like a good place to start and will it be worth putting money in it. Also does anyone know a seller of these boards that takes a P.O. ? I work in a school and all I have access to is P.O. purchases. Is there anything else I should check?

Re: Sony KDL55EX720 TV
The service manual troubleshootin flow chart for 10-blink code says it is T-CON or HEM2 board. Try disconnecting either one of them one at a time to see if the error code goes away.Never stop learning

Re: Sony KDL55EX720 TV
Thanks folks. I looked at the caps and saw no bulging or leaking. I may have to bring in my cap meter from home to test them. I got to looking at the service manual and tried to reseat the T-CON plugs and it had no change. I will try the HEM2 board next. I am not at work today so I will try in a few days.Comment

Hi everyone!
I have a Sony KD-65A1 TV with a fault – 4 red LED blinks. After disassembly and visual inspection, I found that the G76 power board and DKA board had been replaced. It is also possible that TCON was replaced, but I am not sure – there are a few marker marks that could be factory-made.
Based on assumptions, the previous service attempted to solve the issue by replacing potentially faulty components. I decided to investigate further, found a service manual, and figured out a way to power up the power supply unit autonomously and put the OLED panel and... -
Hi I'm new to trying to repair TVs, but I saw a broken OLED offered for a reasonable price and thought I'd try my hand at it.
I found the service manual, which was critical to know where to probe.

With it I was able to determine that my DKA board was bad, when P_ON#1/2 gets enabled REG_12 on the DKA board collapses. I'm assuming one of the downstream regulators has a short, but I couldn't work out which rail/component and replaced the DKA board entirely.
Unfortunately the 5-blinks... -
Hi all,
I have the subject TV and it will work normally sometimes but suddenly go black and give the 2 red blinks blink code. When this happens, I check the power supply board voltages and all I have is the Standby 3.3V and BL_ERR 2.2V. When it's working normally, all power supply board voltages look normal and stable. I've checked the backlights with a tester and they all test good. I've also read that the 2 red blinks is a faulty power supply board, so could it be throwing up an erroneous BL_ERR?
Any Sony experts out there that can help??... -
I was using this TV for 5 years before it stopped working. I like this TV and would love to fix it myself.*
When I press the power button, the white led comes on (sony calls the module smart core) and then it switches over to 5 red blinks. No screen, no backlight, no relay click, nothing. I have disassembled the tv and found the service manual for 75x940e online. The manual suggests a faulty power board, TCON or the panel.**
The standby pin is at 3.3V. Fuses on the mainboard and TCON are fine. Caps on TCON also seem to be fine. When I turn on the tv the white led... -
Hey guys, got this Sony that turns on momentarily and then goes black with 4 blinks of the standby light. I can't find a service manual, but best guess was the Local Dimming board based on a similar TV saying LD_ERR or BCM_ERR. I found a replacement, but it didn't work. Before I put more money into replacement boards, Im wondering if anybody has seen this issue and what worked for them, or has the service manual for this specific TV.
Thanks!...
