    Sony KDL-40XBR6 14 blinks

    Lots of threads about Sony TV's with the 14 blink code.

    Budm posted a training manual in this thread post #39. https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showth...t=25810&page=2

    Troubleshooting flowchart indicates 14 blinks is a LCD panel problem though some posts indicate it may be the Tcon.

    Pulled out the TCON (BT3 version) and checked all the marked fuses (top and bottom) and they were ok.

    In this post, budm indicates that if you pull out the LVDS cable and the TV stays on, the LCD panel is defective. I tried that and the TV does stay on without the error. Plugging it back in, the tv stays on for awhile before the 14 blinks come back. https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=45390

    So does that mean I can sell the Tcon board for big bucks and scrap the tv???

    only because the fuses are good on the tcon, it necessarily doesn't mean the tcon is good as such.

      Scrapped the TV but found this ebay listing for repair service for the Tcon board with 14 blinks.

        Sony KD-75XF9005 grey Picture but Sound. TCON or panel?
        by iglitare
        Hi,

        i want to repair a Sony KD-75XF9005 TV that initially only showed a grey picture.
        Backlight seems to work, Sound (Setup menu after reset) works.
        If i dissconnect the left FFC cable from TCON to panel i have half a screen on the right. If left cable is connected always only the grey screen.
        Interchanged the cables, its always only the right side that is working. Always grey if left side is connected.
        With my small knowledge i would think at least the cables are good.

        Can this happen because of a bad tcon board?
        Or is it always a bad/shorted...

        LG 82UN8570AUD ~ TCON or PANEL?
        by kca
        Hello all ~

        Hope this finds you well. This LG 82UN8570AUD (April 2021 model) 4K UHD television has full audio capabilities but video is compromised / problematic.

        When I picked up this large LG tv it had a full black screen upon startup. Previous owner said it just went black one day. No popping sound or anything else of note.

        I got the display to work by taping off several traces of the right-hand side ribbon cable on the TCON that leads from TCON to PANEL. However, despite dozens and dozens of attempts to find the right combination / range of traces taped...

        Sony KD-55X9000F TCON Issue
        by thelankanguy
        The TV shows a black screen with no image.
        TCON ribbon connectors were disconnected individually for image and there was no half image even.
        Later both ribbons were disconnected and TCON voltages were tested.
        12V, 3.3V, 1.8V were seen present but VONE signal reads 0V.
        There is also a short to ground in this circled inductor.
        Is this a TCON issue or something else ?...

        Sony XBR-75X940E intermittent 6 blinks error code
        by GoodCapDude
        Hi everyone. First post on Badcaps!

        I am trying to fix a Sony 940E from 2017 that either starts normally (and works perfectly until turned off) or goes straight to the 6 blinks error code without showing anything on the screen. It is frustrating to know that it can still work perfectly but is barely usable because of the difficulty starting it up. I am willing to try to short the BL_ERR but I would like to avoid that if possible. Does anyone have a view on this? Thanks a lot....

        Sony KD-55AG9 TCON?
        by bbrain
        Hi,

        I have this problem with my Sony 55' AG9.
        It flashes 4x.
        I have found the service manual, and seems it is the TCON.

        Before I buy a TCON can someone check the vid?



        Thanks in advance!...
