    Sony KDL-46XBR2 only PC input??

    hi
    i have a non working Sony KDL-46XBR2 when i turn it on the green light is on, but no backlight or picture.i checked everything and i trace the problem down to the main board.Luckly, i had the exact mainboard in my storage room.replaced the mainboard and when i turn it on nothing happens ( the same symptoms) , but if i press on the source button on the tv i can scroll between only two inputs.either the regular tv ( snowy picture or Video 9).if i hoock up the tv to my computer i get a very good picture.
    i want to know if someone has an idea what's going on?why i don't have the other inputs ( HDMI1,HDMI2, components...)
    thanks in advance

    is the replacement board guaranteed working ? did it come from same set using same everything else ?
    did you try things like factory reset ?

      Are the other inputs greyed out in the menu or not listed, Try a factory reset (see manual)

        the replacement board is from another exact model.
        My problem i can't do a factory reset with the remote.I can use the remote for certain things for instance if i press on volume, channels menu...it works, but other button like power , tv/video are not working.
        is there any other way to do a factory reset without the remote control?

                I fixed the problem, it was a fuse on the QM board.The QM board is the board that generates the user menu.Tv is working good now.
                Thanks for your inputs guys

                  Add Stereo Input To Hi-Fi (Sony SONY PMC 107L)
                  by Tarot Superstars
                  Hi.
                  I bought a Cheap HIFI to use as my PC output and speakers and forgot to check if it had an input. It doesn't.

                  Is there any way to add a stereo input. I have a bunch of Phono sockets I am not using.
                  Where in the circuit is the best place to solder the 3 stereo input wires?

                  This is the model and schematics:

                  820-02020 Super Weird Issue: Keyboard Input Character Map "Wrong"?
                  by ugamazing
                  So, I have a really bizarre issue that I'm struggling to identify the cause of. Working on an 820-02020 board with some bizarre keyboard/input-source character mapping. My suspicion is a possible damaged SPI ROM (U1970), perhaps, but I'm really not sure in this case:

                  1. The issue is pretty weird, but when installing MacOS, I noticed my WiFi password did not work. I quickly realized the special characters (!@#$%^& etc) were not mapping correctly.

                  2. I noticed the keyboard layout/input-source is defaulting to JAPANESE every single time I restore the board. I am not...

                  Sony STR-DH520 no optical input
                  by alfatv
                  Hi guys,
                  This is my own (actually present to gf) amp which I am not even using so much.
                  Recently started to use optical input from TV which worked great.
                  However recently the link went down.
                  Few days ago I opened it up, cleaned PCBs from dust, then came back to life.
                  But today it did the same thing again.
                  On TV when I change setting from speakers to just optical and other way around, audio comes up only for very short moment.
                  There are 2 optical inputs, both behave same way.
                  I found schematic which is attached.
                  I hope this forum experts...

                  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...
