    Sony KDL-75W850C Issues

    I have a Sony KDL-75W850C that when powered on it blinks the backlights and then turns off. After a couple seconds it will then go into the led blink mode and will blink 6 times. I took off the back and the power board clicks on when powered on and then clicks off after a couple of minutes. I have seen where this could be backlights but is there a possibility that the powerboard or main board could be bad?

    Check your led voltages at the led connecter at switch on and see if they peak then drop before the power supply switches off.
    Willing to help but I'm no expert.

      You need to put all connectors back in place, then keep black probe on the chassis and then Red probe on each pins of the LED connector, since you have 4 LED strings, then you will have to preform the test 8 times when turning on the TV on while watching the meter.

          This model is notorious for bad backlights. The panel has white two way adhesive tape holding it down into the panel trim so you have to break that panel away from the bezel before you pull it or you will damage it. The new strip kits are hard to find but the rest of the exchange is pretty easy.

            If fix goes well place a varistor to protect leds output, not tried but worth a try..

              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...

              Sony KDL-52Z4500 6 Red LED Blink
              by Famo
              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 ).

              Sony XBR-49X800G networking issues
              by HarryZ
              Aloha. First post here, hope I can find someone to assist me.

              I have a Sony XBR49X800G with streaming issues. The issue mostly occurs watching sporting events (basketball and football). The picture will sometimes get pixelated, sometimes freeze for a few seconds while the audio continues, sometimes it's jerky. In other words, you get a headache watching the TV.

              My ISP provides 500 Mb service and I have verified that I have at least 500 Mb on ethernet, and something over 300Mb on WiFi. I installed Analiti on the TV (it's an Android TV) and I get ~ 70 Mb on both WiFi...
