    Sony KDL-46EX523 standby light red, turns off upon power, no blinks

    Hello all!

    Dealing with a Sony KDL-46EX523 LED-backlit TV. Upon providing power, the standby LED is red, but when pressing power the LED goes off without any blinking. Pressing power again has no effect (does not go back into standby).

    The power supply is an APS-285. Checked the 12V pins and 3.3V standby, both are present at standby and after pressing power. Caps look fine.

    Hoping someone can shed some light on this

      Does the back light come on?

          Not that I can see. I'll test the backlit output and see if anything happens when I first press power. I'm leaning to a bad PSU.

              Could be also a bad main board not sending BLon to the PSU.

                  Sony KD-65XE8596 no standby light
                  by brithepi2k
                  Hi,

                  I’ve got a Sony KD-65XE8596 here that has no standby light coming on. I’ve tested the power board with the test meter, the TV needs 3.4 for the standby but only getting 2.4. Anything that I can change/check on the board to get it working? Pictures of the board are included.

                  cheers...

                  Sony XR-55X90J 5 blinks
                  by matwan
                  Hello,

                  I have problem with SONY 55X90J. After several check status is as below;
                  1. Running power board as stand alone:

                  TCON_12V =~ 12.6V
                  EVDD V On Max 24V= 19V.

                  2.                  Running power board with TCON as stand alone:

                  Effect as below, attched.

                  3. When bottom LVDS cable is disconnected no blinks, but of course no TCON 12V and EVDD.
                  "I'm almost sure it's a defective panel, but maybe someone has encountered a similar issue on their screen.

                  Best regards....

                  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-65A1 Repair – 4 Red Blinks Error
                  by AK_777
                  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...
