    Thanks for the follow-up, I guess it is too late to take the measurement as I suggested in post 9.

      That board fail in my TV as well. In my TV, clearly I could see a difference at a test point, at one of the ICs.

        I did your suggestion in post 9 on the tv in my thread and they all read the same. I still cannot find the problem. If you search kneeman can see my thread.

        Good to see you again Bud!

          These test points I'm talking about. One of them, had a different reading then the rest.

            Sorry to resurrect an old thread but I am having similar issues with the same set and wanted some advice. I get 4 blinks after the screen starts up. I checked the test points on the LD board and they all seem to start at 2.84V at boot than drop to .040 second later .025 than they fail at .384volts. My screen does look funky and wondering if this is the led if so are several of them bad ?

                To me, it seems like you have bad LEDs.
                You will have to take apart the screen.

                  Ok what am I looking for do I take apart the screen and actually check individual leds to see if they are illuminated and replace individual leds?

                    Is there a way I can text the voltage going out to the led strips on the LD board?

                        nevermind... LD BOARD is LED array board

                          All, just want to say thank you for this thread. I had same issue on my KDL-46NX720. I removed the BL_ERR line from pin #3 from the PS connecter and taped it ground (back of the TV) and now the TV has been working for 2 straight days, burn in. Much appreciated.

                            Sony 85x90CK 4 red blink
                            by EazyBone
                            So I got this Sony and purchased it working.. got it home and it was 4 blinks red. Seller actually refunded me thankfully. Now it's massive to take apart and I know 4 blink can be the panel sometimes but not always..

                            But I found a method through other ways with grounding out the bl error pin on the LD driver board. Now the tv turns on and works.

                            Pin is number 27. It was either remove the resistor right next to the solder pad or solder the pad to ground. I soldered the pad.

                            Now what is this going to do to the tv? Is it just going to die shortly down the road?...

                            Sony RB2G Chassis KDL-55W815B MAIN BOARD 2 Blink Error issue resolved! Happy days :)
                            by cheeky2
                            For anyone interested just repaired this Sony Main board TV that had a 2 blink error code, the chassis is a RB2G which is common to quite a few different Sony models. The Ceramic 10uF 25V X7R 1206 capacitor C9114 was shorted which took the smd 2A 0603 fuse out F9101. This was powering the Buck converter TPS54332 which caused no 5V output from it.
                            See the attached picture of the locations of both components. I also attach the best service manual I found for this board for anyone else in a similar position of trying to repair this main board. It's not specific to the TV model however it gives...

                            Hello badcaps forum.

                            I have a Sony KDL-52Z4500 TV that needs a little trouble shooting. History of the TV: I bought it about 14 years ago. One year ago, I took it off the wall to move to another house. During the past year it sat in its original packaging - even with the thin film plastic bag/cover that it gets shipped in, cardboard box and all. Last week I unpacked it to mount it in the garage for my wife's gym that she has setup. Turned it on, set up a chormecast on it for her, and all was good for a week running like always (brownie points for me from the wife ).

                            Another eazybone post took on this OLED now.

                            Symptoms. Hit power, white light shows briefly and then 5 blink red code. TCON issue per chart on first picture.

                            I'm thinking I have a power board issue though, which is one of the options

                            Now to check pin voltages from PSU to main and PSU to tcon

                            Pic 2

                            1 tcon on 12 -- 0v (when I hit power this goes to 3.1 stays for short time and back to zero)
                            2 bl err -- 0.16
                            3 evdd on --0
                            4. Ac off det 3.187
                            5 power on -- 3.362 BUT fluctuating randomly to 3.352
