    Sony kdl-60r520a logo flash then 6 blinks

    I have a Sony 60 inch LED KDL 60r520a . Had this TV for about 5 months originally PowerUp nothing came on the screen from Googling and stuff I tested the t-con and it was bad tried to replace the bad components messed the t-con up. Recently found a donor TV broken screen still lit up and played. I swap the new t-con in the TV turns on was watching videos grab the TV to move it and it powered off. I unplugged it powered it back on came back on let it play videos for about an hour then it went off again. And now all I can get it to do is Flash the Sony logo and then the 6 blinks. I even swapped power supplies and main boards. Could this be caused buy a bad LED. I replaced lots of backlit LEDs never Edge lit. The donor TV was a 70 inch the LED strips might not be the same length. This model has three boards power supply tcon main board

    Did more testing
    3.3vsb is 3.3v
    Acd is 3.3v
    Power on 3.3v when switched on
    Tcon 12v
    Reg12v is 12v when on
    Bl error is 3.3v when turned on
    Blon is 2.9v when turned on
    Pwm dimmer 1.6v when turned on

    Led connector
    Led1 + goes to 137v
    Led1 - goes to 60v
    Same readings led2 led3

    Screen flashes logo for a second .
    Where does the bl error detection come from the tcon? Or

      Can't win with this TV turns out the power connector to the board isn't always connecting. So I fixed that TV turns on the right side facing the TV is darker and sluggish yesterday it was fine I'm guessing I can't remove the driver board like you can on the 70 inch models are there any work around for the 60 inch models.

        you have a BL error which is more likely that you have some of the LEDs out. The operation on those can be done IF you can find suitable replacement leds.
        Of course, a picture of the display will likely confirm this.

            Since this model doesn't have tab driver boards like the 70" model guess no way give panel extra life.

                Backlights stay on now just no video. Possible panel failure? Yesterday worked fine . Then power cord issue that's fixed but then half screen darker sluggish and now no video at all. Swaped main board and psu no change . Don't have another tcon to try. Have 12v at tcon but tcon getting extremely hot.

                  This is all I get now. Thinking of ordering new tcon any ideas if that's worth it ? Or is above symptoms a bad panel?

                        What do you get on the screen if you have the flat ribbon cables between the T-CON and the LCD panel connected one at a time?

                            "Disconnect right cable I get a washed out white pic across whole screen looks like some distortion of colour or picture" It that with the left cable in place but right cable not in place? We want one cable in one at a time only, not both out at the same time.

                                Ordered new tcon replaced it turn the TV on back lights come on then dim but still no picture. Disconnecting the ribbon cables from the t-con to the panel one side at a time does nothing just the backlight stays the same is this a mainboard issue?

                                  possible its the mainboard but i would say more the lcd panel thats at fault lets see what others have too say though.

                                      I got here a Sony 65X950G - I tried to find any repairs guides for this model but not many online

                                      here is the issue
                                      I have Sony and android logo. but then 4 led red flash lights front of the tv

                                      I have 3.3v ref. 12v reg then T con 12v when I press the power on button
                                      but then I get black screen and 4 red flash light at the front LED
                                      but I get 3 led flash on the LED driver board.

                                      I check that few X900F or C YouTube repairs, seems that if you have 4 led red flash it could be due of LED black light error

                                      Sony TV model KD-65XE7005 - only Sony logo for 3 seconds
                                      by mauda
                                      I'm currently working on repairing a malfunctioning Sony TV model KD-65XE7005 with the mainboard 1-981-926-21. I would appreciate your assistance with this issue.

                                      Upon powering on the TV, the Sony logo appears for approximately 3 seconds, after which the backlight remains lit, the screen remains black, and nothing else happens. The TV consumes around 55W initially and then drops to 35W. The indicator LED remains solid white. It doesn't respond to the remote control. When attempting to update the TV using a USB dongle, the dongle briefly flashes but nothing else happens.

                                      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 A8H to A80J mainboard upgrade possible?
                                      by TerraPhantm
                                      I have a Sony 65A8H. Always bothered me that it doesn't have HDMI 2.1. I noticed the A80J board appears quite similar. And comparing some wiring diagrams in the service manuals (albeit A9G vs A90J since I couldn't find the A8/80 manuals), things appeared quite similar. And my understanding is the panels between the two TVs are more or less the same.

                                      So I decided I'd experiment a little bit.

                                      I bought an A80J board. Left the speaker connection unplugged because it doesn't fit. Changed the power connector to fit the new board. Plugged in everything else.

                                      When...

                                      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!...
